The faintest dwarf galaxies

JD Simon - Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2019 - annualreviews.org
The lowest luminosity (L) Milky Way satellite galaxies represent the extreme lower limit of the
galaxy luminosity function. These ultra-faint dwarfs are the oldest, most dark matter …

The saga survey. ii. building a statistical sample of satellite systems around milky way–like galaxies

YY Mao, M Geha, RH Wechsler, B Weiner… - The Astrophysical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
We present the Stage II results from the ongoing Satellites Around Galactic Analogs (SAGA)
Survey. Upon completion, the SAGA Survey will spectroscopically identify satellite galaxies …

A galaxy lacking dark matter

P Van Dokkum, S Danieli, Y Cohen, A Merritt… - Nature, 2018 - nature.com
Studies of galaxy surveys in the context of the cold dark matter paradigm have shown that
the mass of the dark matter halo and the total stellar mass are coupled through a function …

Wide-field survey of dwarf satellite systems around 10 hosts in the local volume

SG Carlsten, JP Greco, RL Beaton… - The Astrophysical …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
We present the results of an extensive search for dwarf satellite galaxies around 10 primary
host galaxies in the Local Volume (LV, D< 12 Mpc) using archival CFHT/MegaCam imaging …

The formation of isolated ultradiffuse galaxies in romulus25

AC Wright, M Tremmel, AM Brooks… - Monthly Notices of …, 2021 - academic.oup.com
We use the romulus25 cosmological simulation volume to identify the largest-ever simulated
sample of field ultradiffuse galaxies (UDGs). At z= 0, we find that isolated UDGs have …

ELVES. IV. The Satellite Stellar-to-halo Mass Relation Beyond the Milky Way

S Danieli, JE Greene, S Carlsten, F Jiang… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
Quantifying the connection between galaxies and their host dark matter halos has been key
for testing cosmological models on various scales. Below M⋆∼ 10 9 M⊙, such studies have …

The dragonfly nearby galaxies survey. V. HST/ACS observations of 23 low surface brightness objects in the fields of NGC 1052, NGC 1084, M96, and NGC 4258

Observational properties of ultra-diffuse galaxies in low-density environments: field UDGs are predominantly blue and star forming

DJ Prole, RFJ van der Burg, M Hilker… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2019 - academic.oup.com
While we have learnt much about ultradiffuse galaxies (UDGs) in groups and clusters,
relatively little is known about them in less dense environments. More isolated UDGs are …
