A Study of Abundance Patterns in the Sextans and Sculptor Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
In this work, we employ a multicomponent decomposition model to study the Sextans and Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxies, which have distinct evolutionary histories.

Dark Matter Searches with HAWC

open access: yes, 2017
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) gamma-ray observatory is a wide field-of-view observatory sensitive to 0.5 TeV - 100 TeV gamma-rays and cosmic-rays in the State of Puebla, Mexico at an altitude of 4100m.

Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies and Globular Clusters [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1988
Recent observational results for dwarf spheroidal galaxies are reviewed and discussed. In particular, the differences in stellar populations between dwarf spheroidal galaxies and globular clusters are highlighted. It seems most probable that the origin and evolution of dwarf spheroidal galaxies was very different from that of globular clusters.

Search for annihilating Dark Matter towards dwarf galaxies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The standard model of cosmology indicates that approximately 27% of the energy density of the Universe is in the form of dark matter. The nature of dark matter is an open question in modern physics.

Relieving Tensions Related to the Dark Matter Interpretation of the Fermi-LAT Data

open access: yesGalaxies, 2018
Recently, many studies indicate that the GeV gamma ray excess signal from the central Milky Way can be best explained by ∼40–50 GeV dark matter annihilating via the b b ¯ channel.

Maximally self-interacting dark matter: models and predictions

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
We study self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) scenarios, where the s-wave self-scattering cross section almost saturates the Unitarity bound. Such self-scattering cross sections are singly parameterized by the dark matter mass, and are featured by strong ...

Impulsive Mixing of Stellar Populations in Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study the response of mono-energetic stellar populations with initially isotropic kinematics to impulsive and adiabatic changes to an underlying dark matter potential.

Spheroidal and elliptical galaxy radial velocity dispersion determined from Cosmological General Relativity

open access: yes, 2007
Radial velocity dispersion in spheroidal and elliptical galaxies, as a function of radial distance from the center of the galaxy, has been derived from Cosmological Special Relativity.

An Analytical Galactic Chemical Evolution Model with Gas Inflow and a Terminal Wind

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a new analytical galactic chemical evolution (GCE) model with gas inflow, internally caused outflow, and extra gas loss after a period of time. The latter mimics the ram pressure stripping of a dwarf satellite galaxy near the pericenter of its

Ultradiffuse Galaxies—A Distinct Population? Dwarf Galaxies in the Coma Cluster and A262 from Deep u′–g′–r′ Wendelstein Imaging Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
In this study, we compare the structural parameters of ultradiffuse galaxies (UDGs) to those of other dwarf galaxies and investigate whether UDGs form a distinct population.
