Merian: A Wide-Field Imaging Survey of Dwarf Galaxies at z~0.06-0.10
Shany Danieli, Erin Kado-Fong, Song Huang +32
We present the Merian Survey, an optical imaging survey optimized for studying the physical properties of bright star-forming dwarf galaxies. Merian is carried out with two medium-…
A Nonparametric Morphological Analysis of H Emission in Bright Dwarfs Using the Merian Survey
Abby Mintz, Jenny E. Greene, Erin Kado-Fong +10
Using medium-band imaging from the newly released Merian Survey, we conduct a nonparametric morphological analysis of H emission maps and stellar continua for a sample of galaxi…
SAGAbg II: the Low-Mass Star-Forming Sequence Evolves Significantly Between 0.05<z<0.21
Erin Kado-Fong, Marla Geha, Yao-Yuan Mao +8
The redshift-dependent relation between galaxy stellar mass and star formation rate (the Star-Forming Sequence, or SFS) is a key observational yardstick for galaxy assembly. We use…
Stellar Mass Calibrations for Local Low-Mass Galaxies
Mithi A. C. de los Reyes, Yasmeen Asali, Risa Wechsler +10
The stellar masses of galaxies are measured using integrated light via several methods -- however, few of these methods were designed for low-mass ($M_{\star}\lesssim10^{8}\rm{M_{\…
The SAGA Survey. V. Modeling Satellite Systems around Milky Way-mass Galaxies with Updated UniverseMachine
Yunchong Wang, Ethan O. Nadler, Yao-Yuan Mao +11
Environment plays a critical role in shaping the assembly of low-mass galaxies. Here, we use the UniverseMachine (UM) galaxy-halo connection framework and the Data Release 3 of the…
The SAGA Survey. IV. The Star Formation Properties of 101 Satellite Systems around Milky Way-mass Galaxies
Marla Geha, Yao-Yuan Mao, Risa H. Wechsler +9
We present the star-forming properties of 378 satellite galaxies around 101 Milky Way analogs in the Satellites Around Galactic Analogs (SAGA) Survey, focusing on the environmental…
The SAGA Survey. III. A Census of 101 Satellite Systems around Milky Way-mass Galaxies
Yao-Yuan Mao, Marla Geha, Risa H. Wechsler +9
We present Data Release 3 (DR3) of the Satellites Around Galactic Analogs (SAGA) Survey, a spectroscopic survey characterizing satellite galaxies around Milky Way (MW)-mass galaxie…
Dwarf-Dwarf Interactions Can Both Trigger and Quench Star Formation
Erin Kado-Fong, Azia Robinson, Kristina Nyland +4
It is exceedingly rare to find quiescent low-mass galaxies in the field. UGC5205 is an example of such a quenched field dwarf (). Despite a wealth of…
SAGAbg I: A Near-Unity Mass Loading Factor in Low-Mass Galaxies via their Low-Redshift Evolution in Stellar Mass, Oxygen Abundance, and Star Formation Rate
Erin Kado-Fong, Marla Geha, Yao-Yuan Mao +7
Measuring the relation between star formation and galactic winds is observationally difficult. In this work we make an indirect measurement of the mass loading factor (the ratio be…
