The Dark Matter Content of Milky Way Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies: Draco, Sextans, and Ursa Minor
The Milky Way Survey of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) has so far observed three classical dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs): Draco, Sextans, and Ursa Minor.

Little Bear’s pulsating stars: Variable star census of UMi dSph Galaxy
Recent observations and a photometric search for variable stars in the Ursa Minor dwarf spheroidal galaxy (UMi dSph) are presented. Our observations were taken at Apache Point Observatory in 2014 and 2016 using the 0.5m ARCSAT telescope and the West ...

Variable Stars in Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies [PDF]
Interest in dwarf spheroidal galaxies is motivated by a number of reasons; an important one on the occasion of this colloquium is the abundance of variable stars. The theory of stellar evolution and stellar pulsations is now able to predict from theoretical considerations characteristic properties of variable stars in the colour-magnitude diagram (Iben,

Elemental Abundances in And XIX from Coadded Spectra
With a luminosity similar to that of Milky Way dwarf spheroidal systems like Sextans, but a spatial extent similar to that of ultra-diffuse galaxies, Andromeda (And) XIX is an unusual satellite of M31. To investigate the origin of this galaxy, we measure

Dwarf spheroidal galaxies and the mass of the neutrino
It is argued that neutrinos cannot provide the missing mass in Draco and Ursa Minor, since for reasonable neutrino mass (m v ∼ 30 eV) phase-space limits would then require very large core radii (∼ 10 kpc) and masses (∼ 4 × 10 11 M ⊙ ) for these dwarfs, which would make their dynamical friction decay times in the Galactic halo significantly shorter ...
