A UNIVERSAL MASS PROFILE FOR DWARF SPHEROIDAL GALAXIES?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2009
Replacement provides corrections to values of half-light radii adopted for eight classical dSphs, including revised tables and figures (conclusions are unchanged).

Assessment of Dark Matter Models Using Dark Matter Correlations across Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

open access: yesUniverse, 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 ...

Are Milky-Way dwarf-spheroidal galaxies dark-matter free? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
International audienceWe have found that the high velocity dispersions of dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) can be well explained by Milky Way (MW) tidal shocks, which reproduce precisely the gravitational acceleration previously attributed to dark ...

Exploring the Evolution of a Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy with SPH Simulations. II. AGN Feedback

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback from an intermediate-mass black hole at the center of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy, by performing isolated galaxy simulations using a modified version of the GADGET-3 code. We consider Leo II (PGC 34176)

Exploring the Structures and Substructures of the Andromeda Satellite Dwarf Galaxies Cassiopeia III, Perseus I, and Lacerta I

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present results from wide-field imaging of the resolved stellar populations of the dwarf spheroidal galaxies Cassiopeia III (And XXXII) and Perseus I (And XXXIII), two satellites in the outer stellar halo of the Andromeda galaxy (M31).

DELVE-DEEP Survey: The Faint Satellite System of NGC 55

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the first comprehensive census of the satellite dwarf galaxies around NGC 55 (2.1 Mpc) as a part of the DECam Local Volume Exploration DEEP (DELVE-DEEP) survey. NGC 55 is one of four isolated, Magellanic analogs in the Local Volume around which

Galaxias Enanas del Grupo Local

open access: yesMomento, 2009
The satellite galaxies of the Milky Way are very important both for the studies of the formation and evolution of galaxies and for the research on the dark matter problem. In the present review paper some structural properties of the Local Group, as well

Metallicity gradients in the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2001
Metallicity gradients in the Sagittarius dwarf Galaxy (Sgr) are investigated by using infrared photometric data from the 2MASS survey. To search for metallicity effects, the giant branch in a field situated near the Center of the Sgr is compared to the giant branch in a field situated near its southern edge.

Mass Modelling of dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We study the origin and properties of unbound stars in the kinematic samples of dwarf spheroidal galaxies. For this purpose we have run a high resolution N-body simulation of a two-component dwarf galaxy orbiting in a Milky Way potential.
