Effective J -factors for Milky Way dwarf spheroidal galaxies with velocity-dependent annihilation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We calculate the effective $J$-factors, which determine the strength of indirect detection signals from dark matter annihilation, for 25 dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs).

Looking for axion dark matter in dwarf spheroidal galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2018
We study the extent to which the decay of cold dark matter axions can be probed with forthcoming radio telescopes such as the Square Kilometer Array (SKA).

The puzzling assembly of the Milky Way halo – contributions from dwarf Spheroidals and globular clusters

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
While recent sky surveys have uncovered large numbers of ever fainter Milky Way satellites, their classification as star clusters, low-luminosity galaxies, or tidal overdensities remains often unclear. Likewise, their contributions to the build-up of the

Dwarf Spheroidal Satellite Formation in a Reionized Local Group [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies have emerged a powerful probe of small-scale dark matter clustering and of cosmic reionization. They exhibit structural and chemical continuity with dwarf irregular galaxies in the field and with spheroidal galaxies in

On the Dynamical Heating of Dwarf Galaxies in a Fuzzy Dark Matter Halo

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Action-based dynamical models of dwarf spheroidal galaxies: application to Fornax [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
We present new dynamical models of dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) in which both the stellar component and the dark halo are described by analytic distribution functions that depend on the action integrals.

THE CHEMICAL EVOLUTION OF THE DRACO DWARF SPHEROIDAL GALAXY [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2009
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

The Chemical Signature of a Relic Star Cluster in the Sextans Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy - Implications for Near-Field Cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...
