The Origin Of Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1983 Two dwarf spheroidal galaxies are associated with the Magellanic Stream with their major axes oriented along it. Evidence suggests that all the dwarf spheroidal satellites of the Galaxy belong to one or other of two streams of tidal debris. If this is true the orbits will give the first reliable determination of the total mass of the Galaxy out to 120 ...

HEAD IN THE STARS, FEET ON THE GROUND: Scale and Astronomy Initiatives in Southern Africa
Cultural Anthropology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 571-596, November 2025.ABSTRACT This article explores the evolution of radio astronomy in South Africa and Madagascar, focusing on how “scale” functions as both a way of understanding the world and marking differences in existence. In outer space research, the ground is crucial but often overlooked.

Tools for Learning—Promoting Reflection for Student Teachers' Development of PCK
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, Volume 62, Issue 8, Page 1902-1922, October 2025.ABSTRACT This paper investigates how the coherent integration of three different tools for reflection during a science methods course can contribute to student teachers' planning and enactment of science teaching, that is, their development of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK).

Angular Momentum in Dwarf Galaxies
Open Astronomy, 2014 AbstractWe study the “angular momentum catastrophe” in the framework of interaction among baryons and dark matter through dynamical friction. By means of Del Popolo (2009) model we simulate 14 galaxies similar to those investigated by van den Bosch, Burkert and Swaters (2001), and calculate the distribution of their spin parameters and the angular ...

DWARF GALAXIES OF THE LOCAL GROUP [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1998 ▪ Abstract The Local Group dwarf galaxies offer a unique window to the detailed properties of the most common type of galaxy in the Universe. In this review, I update the census of Local Group dwarfs based on the most recent distance and radial velocity determinations.
