Stellar Density Profiles of Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies - Posterior Distributions
This archive contains samples from the posterior distributions of our 3-plummer, 1-plummer, 3-steeper and 1-steeper fits for 40 dwarf spheroidal galaxies as described in "Stellar Density Profiles of Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies" (https://arxiv.org/abs/1910 ...

Faint (and bright) variable stars in the satellites of the Milky Way
I describe two ongoing projects related with variable stars in the satellites of the MilkyWay. In the first project, we are searching for dwarf Cepheid stars (a.k.a δ Scuti and/or SX Phe) in some of the classical dwarf spheroidal galaxies. Our goal is to

Impact of Cosmic‐Ray Physics on Dark Matter Indirect Searches
The quest for the elusive dark matter (DM) that permeates the Universe (and in general the search for signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model at astronomical scales) provides a unique opportunity and a tough challenge to the high energy astrophysics community.

The Discreet Charm of Higgsino Dark Matter: A Pocket Review
We give a brief review of the current constraints and prospects for detection of higgsino dark matter in low‐scale supersymmetry. In the first part we argue, after performing a survey of all potential dark matter particles in the MSSM, that the (nearly) pure higgsino is the only candidate emerging virtually unscathed from the wealth of observational ...

An LBT view of the Andromeda’s satellite galaxies
Results are presented on deep (V ∼ 26.5 mag) time series observations of four dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) in the Andromeda (M31) complex, namely, And XIX, And XXI, And XXV and And XXVII, that we have observed with the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT)

THE CHEMICAL EVOLUTION OF THE DRACO DWARF SPHEROIDAL GALAXY [PDF]
We present an abundance analysis based on high resolution spectra of 8 stars selected to span the full range in metallicity in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy. We find [Fe/H] for the sample stars ranges from -1.5 to -3.0 dex. Combining our sample with previously published work for a total of 14 luminous Draco giants, we show that the abundance ratios

Bose‐Einstein Condensate Dark Matter Halos Confronted with Galactic Rotation Curves
We present a comparative confrontation of both the Bose‐Einstein Condensate (BEC) and the Navarro‐Frenk‐White (NFW) dark halo models with galactic rotation curves. We employ 6 High Surface Brightness (HSB), 6 Low Surface Brightness (LSB), and 7 dwarf galaxies with rotation curves falling into two classes.

THE MODELLING OF THE MASS-METALLICITY RELATION FOR THE LOCAL GROUP DWARF GALAXIES
We present results of modelling of the mass-metallicity relation for the Local Group dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies. In this work, we use a single-zone chemo-dynamical model. Our model is based on the scheme suggested by C. Firmani and A. Tutukov (1992)

No WIMP mini-spikes in dwarf spheroidal galaxies [PDF]
The formation of black holes inevitably affects the distribution of dark and baryonic matter in their vicinity, leading to an enhancement of the dark matter density, called spike, and if dark matter is made of WIMPs, to a strong enhancement of the dark matter annihilation rate.
