EDGE: The origin of scatter in ultra-faint dwarf stellar masses and surface brightnesses
Martin P. Rey, Andrew Pontzen, Oscar Agertz +4
We demonstrate how the least luminous galaxies in the Universe, ultra-faint dwarf galaxies, are sensitive to their dynamical mass at the time of cosmic reionization. We select a lo…
Globular clusters as probes of dark matter cusp-core transformations
M. D. A. Orkney, J. I. Read, James A. Petts +1
Bursty star formation in dwarf galaxies can slowly transform a steep dark matter cusp into a constant density core. We explore the possibility that globular clusters (GCs) retain a…
EDGE: the mass-metallicity relation as a critical test of galaxy formation physics
Oscar Agertz, Andrew Pontzen, Justin I. Read +7
We introduce the "Engineering Dwarfs at Galaxy formation's Edge" (EDGE) project to study the cosmological formation and evolution of the smallest galaxies in the Universe. In this…
