WFPC2 Observations of the Carina Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy.

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 1997
We present our analysis of Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 observations in F555W (~V) and F814W (~I) of the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy. The resulting V vs (V-I) color-magnitude diagrams reach V ~ 27.1 mag. The reddening of Carina is estimated to be E(V-I) = 0.08 +- 0.02 mag.

Self-interacting Dark Matter Interpretation of Crater II

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The satellite galaxy Crater II of the Milky Way is extremely cold and exceptionally diffuse. These unusual properties are challenging to understand in the standard model of cold dark matter.

The Origin of High-velocity Stars Considering the Impact of the Large Magellanic Cloud

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Utilizing astrometric parameters sourced from Gaia Data Release 3 and radial velocities obtained from various spectroscopic surveys, we identify 519 high-velocity stars (HiVels) with a total velocity in the Galactocentric rest frame greater than 70% of ...

Probing late-time annihilations of oscillating asymmetric dark matter via rotation curves of galaxies

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
In this paper, we explore the Oscillating Asymmetric Dark Matter (OADM) model to address the core-cusp problem, aiming to resolve the discrepancy between the predictions of the $$\Lambda \textrm{CDM}$$ Λ CDM cosmological model and the observed dark ...

Assessing the Association between the Globular Cluster NGC 4147 and the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The potential association of the globular cluster (GC) NGC 4147 with the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf spheroidal galaxy has been proposed due to their comparable locations and radial velocities. However, there are still debates about this connection.

The Draco Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy in the First Year of Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the spatial distribution, kinematics, and metallicity of stars in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy using data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI).

Effects of Dark Matter Self-interactions on Sagittarius and its Stream

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
This work explores how assumptions regarding the particle-physics nature of dark matter can alter the evolution of the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf spheroidal galaxy and its expansive stellar stream.
