The PAndAS view of the Andromeda satellite system - II. Detailed properties of 23 M31 dwarf spheroidal galaxies [PDF]
, 2016 We present a comprehensive analysis of the structural properties and luminosities of the 23 dwarf spheroidal galaxies that fall within the footprint of the Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey (PAndAS). These dwarf galaxies represent the large majority of

Zinc abundances in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2017 From ESO VLT/FLAMES/GIRAFFE spectra, abundance measurements of Zn have been made in ≈100 individual red giant branch (RGB) stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy. This is the largest sample of individual Zn abundance measurements within a stellar system beyond the Milky Way.

Local Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies and their Histories [PDF]
, 2002 In the first part of this review, an assessment of the possible contribution of disrupted dwarf Spheroidal (dSph) galaxies to the formation the Galactic halo is presented.

Resonant stripping as the origin of dwarf spheroidal galaxies [PDF]
, 2019 Dwarf spheroidal galaxies are the most dark-matter-dominated systems in the nearby Universe(1-3) and their origin is one of the outstanding puzzles of how galaxies form.

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 In hidden sector models, dark matter does not directly couple to the particle content of the Standard Model, strongly suppressing rates at direct detection experiments, while still allowing for large signals from annihilation.

Radio-Frequency Searches for Dark Matter in Dwarf Galaxies
Galaxies, 2019 Dwarf spheroidal galaxies have long been discussed as optimal targets for indirect dark matter searches. However, the majority of such studies have been conducted with gamma-ray instruments.

Extreme Tidal Stripping May Explain the Overmassive Black Hole in Leo I: A Proof of Concept
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 A recent study found dynamical evidence of a supermassive black hole of ∼3 × 10 ^6 M _⊙ at the center of Leo I, the most distant dwarf spheroidal galaxy of the Milky Way. This black hole, comparable in mass to the Milky Way’s Sgr A*, places the system >2
