Schwarzschild dynamical model of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy [PDF]
We present a full dynamical model of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy obtained with the spherically symmetric Schwarzschild orbit superposition method applied to the largest kinematic data set presently available.

The Population of Pulsating Variable Stars in the Sextans Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy [PDF]
A large extension of the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy, 7 deg2, has been surveyed for variable stars using the Dark Energy Camera at the Blanco Telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, Chile.

Dwarf spheroidal galaxies: Keystones of galaxy evolution [PDF]
Dwarf spheroidal galaxies are the most insignificant extragalactic stellar systems in terms of their visibility, but potentially very significant in terms of their role in the formation and evolution of much more luminous galaxies. We discuss the present observational data and their implications for theories of the formation and evolution of both dwarf

Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies [PDF]
Dwarf Spheroidal (dSph) galaxies are the faintest baryonic systems recognized as galaxies. Understanding the structure and stellar populations of these systems is critical for the modelling of their formation and evolution, and by extension, for understanding the general problem of galaxy formation ...

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.

SX Phoenicis (SXP) variables are short-period pulsating stars that exhibit a period–luminosity (PL) relation. We derived the gri -band PL and extinction-free period–Wesenheit (PW) relations, as well as the period-color and reddening-free period-Q-index ...

No WIMP mini-spikes in dwarf spheroidal galaxies [PDF]
The formation of black holes inevitably affects the distribution of dark and baryonic matter in their vicinity, leading to an enhancement of the dark matter density, called spike, and if dark matter is made of WIMPs, to a strong enhancement of the dark matter annihilation rate.

ZIRCONIUM ABUNDANCES IN THE CENTRAL PART OF THE dSph FORNAX GALAXY
We derived LTE zirconium abundance in a sample of 81 giant stars in dwarf spheroidal Fornax galaxy. The LTE synthesis was used for this aim. We obtained the lower Zr abundance in Fornax galaxy comparing to the relevant value in the thick/thin disc of the
