The PAndAS View of the Andromeda Satellite System. IV. Global Properties

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We build a statistical framework to infer the global properties of the satellite system of the Andromeda galaxy (M31) from the properties of individual dwarf galaxies located in the Pan-Andromeda Archaelogical Survey (PAndAS) and the previously ...

The influence of halo assembly on galaxies and galaxy groups [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2009
In this paper, we study the variations of group galaxy properties according to the assembly history in SDSS-DR6 selected groups. Using mock SDSS group catalogues, we find two suitable indicators of group formation time: i) the isolation of the group, defined as the distance to the nearest neighbor in terms of its virial radius, and ii) the ...

Galaxy Groups at Intermediate Redshift [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2001
Galaxy groups likely to be virialized are identified within the CNOC2 intermediate redshift galaxy survey using an iterative method. The number-velocity dispersion relation is in agreement with the low-mass extrapolation of the cluster normalized Press-Schechter function.

Galaxy pairs in the Local Group [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2013
Abstract Current models of galaxy formation predict that galaxy pairs of comparable magnitudes should become increasingly rare with decreasing luminosity. This seems at odds with the relatively high frequency of pairings among dwarf galaxies in the Local Group. We use literature data to show that ∼30 per cent of all the satellites of the

Infall of galaxies onto groups [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
Context.The growth of the structure within the Universe manifests in the form of accretion flows of galaxies onto groups and clusters. Thus, the present-day properties of groups and their member galaxies are influenced by the characteristics of this continuous infall pattern.

Reionization of the Local Group of galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2011
We present the first detailed structure formation and radiative transfer simulations of the reionization history of our cosmic neighbourhood. To this end, we follow the formation of the Local Group of galaxies and nearby clusters by means of constrained simulations, which use the available observational constraints to construct a representation of ...

Elemental Abundances in M31: Individual and Coadded Spectroscopic [Fe/H] and [α/Fe] throughout the M31 Halo with SPLASH

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present spectroscopic chemical abundances of red giant branch stars in Andromeda (M31), using medium-resolution ( R ∼ 6000) spectra obtained via the Spectroscopic and Photometric Landscape of Andromeda’s Stellar Halo survey.

MOND in galaxy groups [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2018
Galaxy groups, which have hardly been looked at in MOND, afford probing the acceleration discrepancies in regions of system-parameter space that are not accessible in well-studied galactic systems, such as galaxies, galaxy clusters, and dwarf-spheroidal satellites of galaxies.
