The effect of non-sphericity on mass and anisotropy measurements in dSph galaxies with Schwarzschild method
Klaudia Kowalczyk, Ewa L. Lokas, Monica Valluri
In our previous work we confirmed the reliability of the spherically symmetric Schwarzschild orbit-superposition method to recover the mass and velocity anisotropy profiles of sphe…
Galaxies with prolate rotation in Illustris
Ivana Ebrova, Ewa L. Lokas
Tens of early type galaxies have been recently reported to possess prolate rotation, i.e. significant amount of rotation around the major axis, including two cases in the Local Gro…
Tidally induced bars in dwarf galaxies on different orbits around a Milky Way-like host
Grzegorz Gajda, Ewa L. Lokas, E. Athanassoula
Bars in galaxies may develop through a global instability or due to an interaction with another system. We study bar formation in disky dwarf galaxies orbiting a Milky Way-like gal…
Recovering the mass profile and orbit anisotropy of mock dwarf galaxies with Schwarzschild modelling
Klaudia Kowalczyk, Ewa L. Lokas, Monica Valluri
We present a new study concerning the application of the Schwarzschild orbit superposition method to model spherical galaxies. The method aims to recover the mass and the orbit ani…
