Dehnen halo effect on a black hole in an ultra-faint dwarf galaxy [PDF]
There had been recent advancement toward the detection of ultra-faint dwarf galaxies, which may serve as a useful laboratory for dark matter exploration since some of them contains almost 99% of pure dark matter. The majority of these galaxies contain no

Resolved Dwarf Galaxy Searches within ∼5 Mpc with the Vera Rubin Observatory and Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam [PDF]
We present a preview of the faint dwarf galaxy discoveries that will be possible with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory and Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam in the next decade.

An extended halo around an ancient dwarf galaxy [PDF]
The Milky Way is surrounded by dozens of ultrafaint (107 M☉, consistent with a generalized Navarro–Frenk–White density profile. The extended nature of Tucana II suggests that it may have undergone strong bursty feedback or been the product of an early ...

Constraining Primordial Black Holes with Dwarf Galaxy Heating [PDF]
Black holes formed in the early universe, prior to the formation of stars, can exist as dark matter and also contribute to the black hole merger events observed in gravitational waves.

We review the observational evidences for tidal dwarf galaxies, a class of small galaxies formed out of the tidal debris of collisions between massive galaxies. Tidal dwarfs are found far from the interacting parent galaxies, associated with massive clouds of atomic hydrogen located at the tip of long tidal tails.

Dwarf elliptical galaxies as ancient tidal dwarf galaxies [PDF]
The formation of tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs) is triggered by the encounters of already existing galaxies. Their existence is predicted from numerical calculations of encountering galaxies and is also well documented with observations. The numerical calculations on the formation of TDGs furthermore predict that TDGs cannot contain significant amounts of

The Local Group on FIRE: dwarf galaxy populations across a suite of hydrodynamic simulations [PDF]
We present a new set of high-resolution hydrodynamic cosmological zoom-in simulations that apply the Feedback In Realistic Environments physics to both Local Group (LG)-like and isolated Milky Way (MW)-like volumes (10 host systems in total with a ...

The Herschel Dwarf Galaxy Survey [PDF]
The sensitive infrared telescopes, Spitzer and Herschel, have been used to target low-metallicity star-forming galaxies, allowing us to investigate the properties of their interstellar medium (ISM) in unprecedented detail.
