The Elusive Distance Gradient in the Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Hercules: A Combined Hubble Space Telescope and Gaia View
Burçin Mutlu-Pakdil, David J. Sand, Denija Crnojević +6
The ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Hercules has an extremely elongated morphology with both photometric overdensities and kinematic members at large radii, suggesting that it may be tida…
Signatures of Tidal Disruption in Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxies: A Combined HST, Gaia, and MMT/Hectochelle Study of Leo V
Burçin Mutlu-Pakdil, David J. Sand, Matthew G. Walker +10
The ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Leo V has shown both photometric overdensities and kinematic members at large radii, along with a tentative kinematic gradient, suggesting that it may…
Extending the Globular Cluster System-Halo Mass Relation to the Lowest Galaxy Masses
Duncan A. Forbes, Justin I. Read, Mark Gieles +1
High mass galaxies, with halo masses , reveal a remarkable near-linear relation between their globular cluster (GC) system mass and their host galaxy…
CDM Predictions for the Satellite Population of M33
Ekta Patel, Jeffrey L. Carlin, Erik J. Tollerud +2
Triangulum (M33) is the most massive satellite galaxy of Andromeda (M31), with a stellar mass of about . Based on abundance matching techniques, M33's tota…
