Self-interacting dark matter on small and large scales

open access: yesSciPost Physics Proceedings, 2023
In the self-interacting dark matter paradigm (hereafter SIDM), dark matter (DM) is assumed to have non-gravitational interactions with itself. SIDM has been constrained by observations of galaxy clusters. More recently, measurements of large DM densities

Satellites of spiral galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1993
We present a survey of satellites around a homogeneous set of late-type spirals with luminosity similar to that of the Milky Way. On average, we find fewer than 1.5 satellites per primary, but we argue that we can treat the survey as an ensemble and so derive the properties of the halo of a 'typical' isolated spiral.

Star Formation in Satellite Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2006
We present narrow-band observations of the H$ $ emission in a sample of 31 satellite orbiting isolated giant spiral galaxies.

Shock-induced Stripping of the Satellite Interstellar and Circumgalactic Medium in IllustrisTNG Clusters at Z ∼ 0

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Using the IllustrisTNG simulation, we study the interaction of large-scale shocks with the circumgalactic medium (CGM) and interstellar medium (ISM) of star-forming (SF) satellite galaxies in galaxy clusters.

The Morphological Evolution of Galaxy Satellites

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2001
We study the evolution of galaxy satellites with high resolution N-body simulations. Satellites are modeled as replicas of typical low and high surface brightness galaxies (LSBs and HSBs). Encounters on high eccentricity orbits (as typical in hierarchical models of galaxy formation) strip LSBs of most of their stars and tend to decrease their surface ...

Radialization of Satellite Orbits in Galaxy Mergers

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Abstract We consider the orbital evolution of satellites in galaxy mergers, focusing on the evolution of eccentricity. Using a large suite of N-body simulations, we study the phenomenon of satellite orbital radialization—a profound increase in the eccentricity of its orbit as it decays under dynamical friction.

Satellite galaxies in nearby groups of galaxies

open access: yes, 2015
We analyse distribution, kinematics and star-formation (SF) properties of satellite galaxies in three different samples of nearby groups. We find that studied groups are generally well approximated by low-concentration NFW model, show a variety of LOS velocity dispersion profiles and signs of SF quenching in outskirts of dwarf satellite galaxies.

More Satellites of Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1997
We present a revised and expanded catalog of satellite galaxies of a set of isolated spiral galaxies similar in luminosity to the Milky Way. This sample of 115 satellites, 69 of which were discovered in our multifiber redshift survey, is used to further probe the results obtained from the original sample (Zaritsky et al. 1993).

Pegasus W: An Ultrafaint Dwarf Galaxy Outside the Halo of M31 Not Quenched by Reionization

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We report the discovery of an ultrafaint dwarf (UFD) galaxy, Pegasus W, located on the far side of the Milky Way–M31 system and outside the virial radius of M31.

A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.
