The Formation of Ultra Diffuse Galaxies in Cored Dark Matter Halos Through Tidal Stripping and Heating
Timothy Carleton, Raphaël Errani, Michael Cooper +3
We propose that the Ultra-Diffuse Galaxy (UDG) population represents a set of satellite galaxies born in M halos, similar to field dwarfs, which suffe…

Systematics in virial mass estimators for pressure-supported systems
Raphaël Errani, Jorge Peñarrubia, Matthew G. Walker
Mass estimators are a key tool to infer the dark matter content in pressure-supported systems like dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs). We construct an estimator for enclosed masses…
