The Ecosystem Of Dwarf Galaxies
It remains unclear what physical mechanisms are triggering starbursts in low-mass galaxies and what is the effect of stellar feedback in their shallow potential wells. We study a sample of 18 nearby starburst dwarfs using multi-wavelength data, including interferometric HI observations, HST imaging, and MUSE integral-field spectroscopy.

Globular Clusters in Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]
Data are presently available on the luminosities and half-light radii of 101 globular clusters associated with low-luminosity parent galaxies. The luminosity distribution of globulars embedded in dwarf galaxies having $M_{v} > -16$ is found to differ dramatically from that for globular clusters surrounding giant host galaxies with $M_{v} < -16 ...

The Dwarf Satellites of M31 and the Galaxy [PDF]
The satellite systems of M31 and the Galaxy are compared. It is noted that all five of the suspected stripped dSph cores of M31 companions are located within a projected distance of 40 kpc of from the nucleus of this galaxy, whereas the normal dSph companions to this object have distances > 40 kpc from the center of M31.

We propose that dwarf elliptical galaxies are the bound remnants of more massive stellar systems, such as a parent galaxy which has lost more than half its mass in gas ejection during a burst of star formation, or an unbound tidal debris produced during the interaction of two giant galaxies.

Star Forming Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]
Star forming dwarf galaxies (SFDGs) have a high gas content and low metallicities, reminiscent of the basic entities in hierarchical galaxy formation scenarios. In the young universe they probably also played a major role in the cosmic reionization. Their abundant presence in the local volume and their youthful character make them ideal objects for ...
