The chemical evolution of the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Sextans [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2020 We present our analysis of the FLAMES dataset targeting the central 25′ region of the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph). This dataset is the third major part of the high-resolution spectroscopic section of the ESO large program 171.B-0588(A) obtained by the Dwarf galaxy Abundances and Radial-velocities Team.

Impact of Cosmic‐Ray Physics on Dark Matter Indirect Searches
Advances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018 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.

Faint (and bright) variable stars in the satellites of the Milky Way
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 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

On the Dynamical Heating of Dwarf Galaxies in a Fuzzy Dark Matter Halo
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Fuzzy dark matter (FDM), consisting of ultralight bosons, is an intriguing alternative to cold dark matter. Numerical simulations solving the Schrödinger–Poisson (SP) equation, which governs FDM dynamics, show that FDM halos consist of a central ...

A SPECTROSCOPIC BINARY IN THE HERCULES DWARF SPHEROIDAL GALAXY [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2013 We present the radial velocity curve of a single-lined spectroscopic binary in the faint Hercules dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy, based on 34 individual spectra covering more than two years of observations. This is the first time that orbital elements could be derived for a binary in a dSph.

The Discreet Charm of Higgsino Dark Matter: A Pocket Review
Advances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018 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
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 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 Signature of a Relic Star Cluster in the Sextans Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy - Implications for Near-Field Cosmology [PDF]
, 2012 We present tentative evidence for the existence of a dissolved star cluster at [Fe/H]=-2.7 in the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy. We use the technique of chemical tagging to identify stars that are highly clustered in a multi-dimensional chemical ...

Bose‐Einstein Condensate Dark Matter Halos Confronted with Galactic Rotation Curves
Advances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017 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.
