Effect of the Large Magellanic Cloud on the kinematics of Milky Way satellites and virial mass estimate

Andrey Kravtsov, Sophia Winney

We present a study illustrating the effects of the passage of a Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) mass satellite on the distance and velocity distributions of satellites in Cold Dar…

Densities and mass assembly histories of the Milky Way satellites are not a challenge to CDM

Andrey Kravtsov, Zewei Wu

We use the \texttt{GRUMPY} galaxy formation model based on a suite of zoom-in, high-resolution, dissipationless Cold Dark Matter (CDM) simulations of the Milky Way (MW) size…

Nitrogen enrichment and clustered star formation at the dawn of the Galaxy

Vasily Belokurov, Andrey Kravtsov

Anomalously high nitrogen-to-oxygen abundance ratios [N/O] are observed in globular clusters (GCs), among the field stars of the Milky Way (MW), and even in the gas in a $z\approx…

Spatial and orbital planes of the Milky Way satellites: unusual but consistent with CDM

Khanh Pham, Andrey Kravtsov, Viraj Manwadkar

We examine the spatial distribution and orbital pole correlations of satellites in a suite of zoom-in high-resolution dissipationless simulations of Miky Way (MW) sized haloes. We…

Colour and infall time distributions of satellite galaxies in simulated Milky-Way analogs

Yue Pan, Christine M. Simpson, Andrey Kravtsov +6

We use the Auriga simulations to probe different satellite quenching mechanisms operating at different mass scales () in Mil…

Not so fuzzy: excluding FDM with sizes and stellar kinematics of ultra-faint dwarf galaxies

Neal Dalal, Andrey Kravtsov

We use observations of ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxies to constrain the particle mass of ultra-light dark matter. Potential fluctuations created by wave interference in virialized…
