Simulating an isolated dwarf galaxy with multichannel feedback and chemical yields from individual stars [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
In order to better understand the relationship between feedback and galactic chemical evolution, we have developed a new model for stellar feedback at grid resolutions of only a few parsecs in global disk simulations, using the adaptive mesh refinement ...

Satellites and haloes of dwarf galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2012
We study the abundance of satellite galaxies as a function of primary stellar mass using the SDSS/DR7 spectroscopic catalogue. In contrast with previous studies, which focussed mainly on bright primaries, our central galaxies span a wide range of stellar mass, 10^7.5 < M_*^pri/M_sun < 10^11, from dwarfs to central cluster galaxies.

DWARF GALAXIES OF THE LOCAL GROUP [PDF]

open access: greenAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1998
▪ Abstract  The Local Group dwarf galaxies offer a unique window to the detailed properties of the most common type of galaxy in the Universe. In this review, I update the census of Local Group dwarfs based on the most recent distance and radial velocity determinations.

Current Velocity Data on Dwarf Galaxy NGC 1052-DF2 do not Constrain it to Lack Dark Matter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
It was recently proposed that the globular cluster system of the very low surface brightness galaxy NGC 1052-DF2 is dynamically very cold, leading to the conclusion that this dwarf galaxy has little or no dark matter.

Footprints of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy in the Gaia data set [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
We analyse an N-body simulation of the interaction of the Milky Way (MW) with a Sagittarius-like dSph (Sgr), looking for signatures which may be attributed to its orbital history in the phase space volume around the Sun in light of Gaia DR2 discoveries.

Dwarf Galaxies with the Highest Concentration Are Not Thicker than Ordinary Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Abstract The formation mechanism of high-concentration dwarf galaxies is still a mystery. We perform a comparative study of the intrinsic shape of nearby low-mass galaxies with different stellar concentration. The intrinsic shape is parameterized by the intermediate-to-major axis ratios B/A and the minor-to-major axis ratios C/A of ...

Numerical simulations of the chemical evolution of complex gravitating disk and dwarf galaxies system

open access: yesВісник Астрономічної школи, 2004
In this work we have simulated the evolution of disk and dwarf galaxies gravitating system, using our viscosity algorithm. We investigated changes in disk galaxy chemical abundance due to minor merger of dwarf galaxy with lower abundance of heavy ...

Harassment Origin for Kinematic Substructures in Dwarf Elliptical Galaxies? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have run high resolution N-body models simulating the encounter of a dwarf galaxy with a bright elliptical galaxy. The dwarf absorbs orbital angular momentum and shows counter-rotating features in the external regions of the galaxy.

The Next Generation Fornax Survey (NGFS). II. The Central Dwarf Galaxy Population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We present a photometric study of the dwarf galaxy population in the core region (≲rvir/4) of the Fornax galaxy cluster based on deep u′g′i′ photometry from the Next Generation Fornax Cluster Survey.

The Leo-I group: new dwarf galaxy and ultra diffuse galaxy candidates [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
Context. The study of dwarf galaxies and their environments provides crucial test beds for predictions of cosmological models and insights into the structure formation on small cosmological scales. In recent years, many problems on the scale of groups of
