PEARLS: A Potentially Isolated Quiescent Dwarf Galaxy with a Tip of the Red Giant Branch Distance of 30 Mpc

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
A wealth of observations have long suggested that the vast majority of isolated classical dwarf galaxies ( M _* = 10 ^7 –10 ^9 M _⊙ ) are currently star forming.

Deciphering the role of epistemic injustice in school‐based citizen science: Sources, implications, and possible ways for mitigation

open access: yesJournal of Research in Science Teaching, Volume 62, Issue 5, Page 1350-1387, May 2025.
Abstract Participation in citizen science, a research approach in which nonscientists take part in performing research, is a growing practice in schools. A main premise in school‐based citizen science is that through their participation, students and teachers make meaningful contributions to the advancement of science.

Probing the low surface brightness dwarf galaxy population of the virgo cluster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We have used data from the Next Generation Virgo Survey to investigate the dwarf galaxy population of the Virgo cluster. We mask and smooth the data, and then use the object detection algorithm SExtractor to make our initial dwarf galaxy selection.

Searching for nearby diffuse dwarf galaxies in the COSMOS field

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
It remains challenging to systematically survey nearby diffuse dwarf galaxies and address the formation mechanism of this population distinguishing from regular ones.

Tidal Disruption of Milky Way Satellites with Shallow Dark Matter Density Profiles

open access: yesGalaxies, 2016
Dwarf galaxies of the Local Group provide unique possibilities to test current theories of structure formation. Their number and properties have put the broadly accepted cold dark matter model into question, posing a few problems. These problems now seem

The potential of red‐fleshed apples for cider production

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 3, May 2025.
Abstract Cider quality is influenced by numerous factors relating to the apples used during production. While extensive research has been done to explore the phenolic content, sensory quality, and storage stability of various apple products, the domain of fermented apple products, such as ciders, remains underrepresented. Red‐fleshed apples (RFAs) have

ANTLIA B: A FAINT DWARF GALAXY MEMBER OF THE NGC 3109 ASSOCIATION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We report the discovery of Antlia B, a faint dwarf galaxy at a projected distance of ∼72 kpc from NGC 3109 ( M V ∼ − 15 mag ?> ), the primary galaxy of the NGC 3109 dwarf association at the edge of the Local Group.

Exploring the Evolution of a Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy with SPH Simulations. II. AGN Feedback

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback from an intermediate-mass black hole at the center of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy, by performing isolated galaxy simulations using a modified version of the GADGET-3 code. We consider Leo II (PGC 34176)

Hindu Avatāra and Christian Kenosis: A New Approach in Comparative Theology1

open access: yesThe Heythrop Journal, Volume 66, Issue 3, Page 223-237, May 2025.
Abstract Within comparative theology, the Hindu doctrine of avatāra has traditionally been compared to the Christian doctrine of the incarnation, both of which are expressions of divine embodiment in creaturely form. This article, however, contrasts the doctrine of avatāra with a reading of the incarnation that frames the latter within the broader ...

CHARTING UNEXPLORED DWARF GALAXY TERRITORY WITH RR LYRAE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Observational biases against finding Milky Way (MW) dwarf galaxies at low Galactic latitudes (b ≲ ?> 20°) and at low surface brightnesses ( &mgr; V,0 ≳ ?> 29 mag arcsec − 2 ?> ) currently limit our understanding of the faintest limits of the galaxy ...
