Dwarf diversity in CDM with baryons

Akaxia Cruz, Alyson Brooks, Mariangela Lisanti +7

Observed rotation curves of dwarf galaxies exhibit significant diversity at fixed halo mass, challenging galaxy formation within the Cold Dark Matter (CDM) model. Previous cosmolog…

The Seven Dwarfs illuminated. The impact of radiation on dwarf galaxies and their circumgalactic medium

Bernhard Baumschlager, Sijing Shen, James W. Wadsley +6

We present a high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulation of a group of field dwarf galaxies which includes on-the-fly radiative transfer (RT) and is evolved to . Emission…

Survivors and Zombies: The Quenching and Disruption of Satellites around Milky Way Analogs

Debosmita Pathak, Charlotte R. Christensen, Alyson M. Brooks +3

It is necessary to understand the full accretion history of the Milky Way in order to contextualize the properties of observed Milky Way satellite galaxies and the stellar halo. Th…

A MARVEL-ous study of how well galaxy shapes reflect Dark Matter halo shapes in Cold Dark Matter Simulations

Blake Keith, Ferah Munshi, Alyson M. Brooks +6

We present a 3D shape analysis of both dark matter (DM) and stellar matter (SM) in simulated dwarf galaxies to determine whether stellar shape traces DM shape. Using 80 central and…

Intermediate Mass Ratio Inspirals in Milky Way Galaxies

Jillian Bellovary, Yuantong Luo, Thomas Quinn +3

A consequence of a non-zero occupation fraction of massive black holes (MBHs) in dwarf galaxies is that these MBHs can become residents of larger galaxy halos via hierarchical merg…

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_{\…
