Satellites and haloes of dwarf galaxies [PDF]
Monthly 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.

Вісник 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 ...

A Nonrepeating Fast Radio Burst in a Dwarf Host Galaxy
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present the discovery of an as yet nonrepeating fast radio burst (FRB), FRB 20210117A, with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP), as a part of the Commensal Real-time ASKAP Fast Transients Survey.

The Effect of Dwarf Galaxies on the Tidal Tails of Globular Clusters [PDF]
, 2021 The tidal tails of globular clusters have been shown to be sensitive to the external tidal field. We investigate how Galactic globular clusters with observed tails are affected by satellite dwarf galaxies by simulating tails in galaxy models with and without dwarf galaxies.

Morphological transformation of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group [PDF]
, 2015 In the Local Group there are three main types of dwarf galaxies: Dwarf Irregulars, Dwarf Spheroidals, and Dwarf Ellipticals. Intermediate/transitional types are present as well.

Two Candidates for Dual AGN in Dwarf-dwarf Galaxy Mergers
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Dual active galactic nuclei (DAGN) are important for understanding galaxy-merger-triggered fueling of black holes and the hierarchical growth of structures.

The Interstellar Medium of Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]
Galaxies, 2022 Dwarf galaxies are by far the most numerous galaxies in the Universe, showing properties that are quite different from those of their larger and more luminous cousins. This review focuses on the physical and chemical properties of the interstellar medium of those dwarfs that are known to host significant amounts of gas and dust. The neutral and ionized

A Nearby Isolated Dwarf: Star Formation and Structure of ESO 006–001
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Observations with the Hubble Space Telescope unexpectedly revealed that the dwarf galaxy ESO 006–001 is a near neighbor to the Local Group at a distance of 2.70 ± 0.11 Mpc.

The influence of Galactic wind upon the star formation histories of Local Group galaxies [PDF]
, 1997 We examine the possibility that ram pressure exerted by the galactic wind from the Galaxy could have stripped gas from the Local Group dwarf galaxies, thereby affecting their star formation histories.

The evolution of dwarf galaxies [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 1988 We propose an evolutionary model for dwarf galaxies in Which initially metal-poor gas-rich dwarf irregular (dI) galaxies evolve through bursting Blue Compact Dwarf(BCD) stages and eventually fade from the BCD phase to become dwarf ellipticals (dE). During the bursting phase the surface brightness of the galaxy increases rapidly due to enhanced OB star ...
