A Census of Dwarf Galaxy Satellites around LMC-mass Galaxy NGC 2403
We present the first comprehensive census of the satellite population around a Large Magellanic Cloud stellar-mass galaxy, as part of the Magellanic Analog Dwarf Companions and Stellar Halos (MADCASH) survey. We have surveyed NGC 2403 ( D = 3.0 Mpc) with

Astrophysical site(s) of r-process elements in galactic chemodynamical evolution model
Astrophysical site(s) of rapid neutron-capture process (r-process) is (are) not identified yet. Although core-collapse supernovae have been regarded as one of the possible candidates of the astrophysical site of r-process, nucleosynthesis studies suggest

We present a study of the evolution of several different dark matter free possible progenitors of the Carina dSph galaxy, one of the satellites of the Milky Way, using Newtonian numerical N-body simulations.

Dark Matter Searches with the Fermi-LAT in the Direction of Dwarf Spheroidals [PDF]
The dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies of the Milky Way are some of the most dark-matter-dominated objects known. Due to their proximity, high dark matter content, and lack of astrophysical backgrounds, dwarf spheroidal galaxies are widely considered to be among the most promising targets for the indirect detection of dark matter via gamma rays.

The 3.5 keV line from stringy axions
An interesting result in particle astrophysics is the recent detection of an unexplained 3.5 keV line from galaxy clusters. A promising model, which can explain the morphology of the signal and its non-observation in dwarf spheroidal galaxies, involves a

The Kinematics of Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies
I review observational data on the kinematic properties of dwarf spheroidal galaxies in the halo of the Milky Way and beyond. The present data confirm previous claims that these galaxies have unusually large central velocity dispersions. `Simple' sources of bias such as binary stars, internal atmospheric motions, measurement errors, and small sample ...
