Evolution of dwarf galaxies: a dynamical perspective [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2014 For a rotating galaxy, the inner circular-velocity gradient d_{R}V(0) provides a direct estimate of the central dynamical mass density, including gas, stars, and dark matter. We consider 60 low-mass galaxies with high-quality HI and/or stellar rotation curves (including starbursting dwarfs, irregulars, and spheroidals), and estimate d_{R}V(0) as V(R_d)/

The cores of dwarf galaxy haloes [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1996 We use N-body simulations to examine the effects of mass outflows on the density profiles of cold dark matter (CDM) halos surrounding dwarf galaxies. In particular, we investigate the consequences of supernova-driven winds that expel a large fraction of the baryonic component from a dwarf galaxy disk after a vigorous episode of star formation.

On the dynamics of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1995 We use numerical simulations to test the feasibility of the suggestion by Ibata et al. (1994) that the excess population of stars which they discovered in the Sagittarius region may be the disrupted remains of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy. We find that a Fornax-like model for the pre-disruption system can indeed reproduce the data.

ANGULAR MOMENTUM OF DWARF GALAXIES [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2016 ABSTRACT We present measurements of baryonic mass and specific angular momentum (sAM) in 14 rotating dwarf Irregular (dIrr) galaxies from the LITTLE THINGS sample.

Ultra-Compact Dwarf Galaxies in Galaxy Clusters [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 2004 AbstractWe review the evidence that the ultra-compact dwarf (UCD) galaxies we recently discovered in the Fornax Cluster form a new, previously unknown class of galaxies and we discuss possible scenarios for their formation. We then present recent results that UCDs are also present in the Virgo Cluster, and that there is a much larger than expected ...

Form flows function: Learner‐centered game Re‐design in a STEM classroom
British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Re‐designing games facilitates interest‐driven learning and immerses learners in systems thinking. However, there are limited studies exploring how the form and function of tabletop games influence learners' design decisions and learning experiences. To address this gap, we conducted a mixed‐methods study in a STEM classroom in western Canada.

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.Paradigm shift: PCR‐free methods reveal 6–15‐fold higher arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal abundance than metabarcoding, exposing systematic underestimation across decades of research. Predictive power: AM fungal abundance serves as a community‐level trait that predicts crop yield under drought conditions.

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.
