Dwarf Galaxies in the MATLAS Survey: The satellite system of NGC474 under scrutiny with MUSE

Oliver Müller, Francine R. Marleau, Nick Heesters +12

A recent study of the distribution of dwarf galaxies in the MATLAS sample in galaxy groups revealed an excess of flattened satellite structures, reminiscent of the co-rotating plan…

Lopsided distribution of MATLAS and ELVES dwarf satellite systems around isolated host galaxies

Nick Heesters, Helmut Jerjen, Oliver Müller +2

The properties of satellite dwarf galaxies pose important empirical constraints to verify cosmological models on galaxy scales. Their phase-space correlations, in particular, offer…

The satellite galaxy plane of NGC 4490 in light of ΛCDM - Sparsity of similarly extreme analogs and a possible role of satellite pairs

Marcel S. Pawlowski, Oliver Müller, Salvatore Taibi +3

The galaxy system around NGC4490 was recently highlighted to display a flattened, kinematically correlated structure reminiscent of satellite galaxy planes around other hosts. Sinc…

A too-many dwarf satellite galaxies problem in the MATLAS low-to-moderate density fields

Kosuke Jamie Kanehisa, Marcel S. Pawlowski, Nick Heesters +1

Dwarf galaxy abundances can serve as discernment tests for models of structure formation. Previous small-scale tensions between observations and dark matter-only cosmological simul…

The phase-space distribution of the M81 satellite system

Oliver Müller, Nick Heesters, Marcel S. Pawlowski +3

The spatial distribution of dwarf galaxies around their host galaxies is a critical test for the standard model of cosmology because it probes the dynamics of dark matter halos and…
