The Extended Stellar Distribution in the Outskirts of the Ursa Minor Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy

Kyosuke S. Sato, Sakurako Okamoto, Masafumi Yagi +7

We discover an extended distribution of main-sequence (MS) stars along the minor axis of the Ursa Minor (UMi) dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph). This study is enabled by deep, wide Su…

The Star Formation and Chemical Evolution Histories of Ursa Minor Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy

Kyosuke S. Sato, Yutaka Komiyama, Sakurako Okamoto +8

We derive the star formation history (SFH) and chemical evolution history (CEH) of the Ursa Minor (UMi) dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph). We detect two distinct stellar populations t…

EMPRESS. X. Spatially resolved mass-metallicity relation in extremely metal-poor galaxies: evidence of episodic star-formation fueled by a metal-poor gas infall

Kimihiko Nakajima, Masami Ouchi, Yuki Isobe +47

Using the Subaru/FOCAS IFU capability, we examine the spatially resolved relationships between gas-phase metallicity, stellar mass, and star-formation rate surface densities (Sigma…
