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 Tucana dwarf spheroidal galaxy: not such a massive failure after all [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2020 Context. Isolated local group (LG) dwarf galaxies have evolved most or all of their life unaffected by interactions with the large LG spirals and therefore offer the opportunity to learn about the intrinsic characteristics of this class of objects. Aims.

Chemical and Photometric Evolution Models for Disk, Irregular, and Low Mass Galaxies
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 We summarize the updated set of multiphase chemical evolution models performed with 44 theoretical radial mass initial distributions and 10 possible values of efficiencies to form molecular clouds and stars. We present the results about the infall rate histories, the formation of the disk, and the evolution of the radial distributions of diffuse and ...

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.

Constraining Dwarf Spheroidal Dark Matter Halos With The Galactic Center Excess
, 2017 If the gamma-ray excess from the galactic center reported by Fermi-LAT is a signal from annihilating dark matter, one must question why a similar excess has not been observed in dwarf spheroidal galaxies.

Chemodynamical Simulations of Dwarf Galaxy Evolution
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 In this review I give a summary of the state of the art for what concerns the chemo‐dynamical numerical modelling of galaxies in general and of dwarf galaxies in particular. In particular, I focus my attention on (i) initial conditions, (ii) the equations to solve; (iii) the star formation process in galaxies, (iv) the initial mass function, (v) the ...

Are dSph galaxies Galactic building blocks?
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012 Dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSph) are frequently assumed to represent surviving examples of a vast now destroyed population of small systems in which many of the stars now forming the Milky Way were formed. Ongoing accretion and considerable sub-structure

Assessment of Dark Matter Models Using Dark Matter Correlations across Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies
Universe, 2022 The predicted size of dark matter substructures in kilo-parsec scales is model-dependent. Therefore, if the correlations between dark matter mass densities as a function of the distances between them are measured via observations, we can scrutinize dark ...

Homogeneous Photometry VI: Variable Stars in the Leo I Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy
, 2014 We have characterized the pulsation properties of 164 candidate RR Lyrae variables (RRLs) and 55 candidate Anomalous and/or short-period Cepheids in Leo I dwarf spheroidal galaxy.

Astronomical Signatures of Dark Matter
Advances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Several independent astronomical observations in different wavelength bands reveal the existence of much larger quantities of matter than what we would deduce from assuming a solar mass to light ratio. They are very high velocities of individual galaxies within clusters of galaxies, higher than expected rotation rates of stars in the outer regions of ...
