Trends with Mass for Dwarf Galaxies from the Marvelous Massive Dwarfs Suite

Dilys Ruan, Alyson M. Brooks, Leonardo A. Barba +7

Galaxy formation scenarios can be interpreted through galaxy morphology and the level of rotational versus pressure support, quantified through the ratio of a galaxy's rotation spe…

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 Formation of Dwarf Galaxy Disks

Robel Geda, Akaxia Cruz, Anna C. Wright +5

Dwarf galaxies are dark matter-dominated systems that are sensitive to feedback and display a diversity of baryonic morphologies. This makes them excellent probes for understanding…

An Empirical Framework Characterizing the Metallicity and Star-Formation History Dependence of X-ray Binary Population Formation and Emission in Galaxies

Bret D. Lehmer, Erik B. Monson, Rafael T. Eufrasio +12

We present a new empirical framework modeling the metallicity and star-formation history (SFH) dependence of X-ray luminous ( ergs s) point-source population lu…

Merian: A Wide-Field Imaging Survey of Dwarf Galaxies at z~0.06-0.10

Shany Danieli, Erin Kado-Fong, Song Huang +32

We present the Merian Survey, an optical imaging survey optimized for studying the physical properties of bright star-forming dwarf galaxies. Merian is carried out with two medium-…

The HMXB Luminosity Functions of Dwarf Galaxies

Robel Geda, Andy D. Goulding, Bret D. Lehmer +2

Drawing from the Chandra archive and using a carefully selected set of nearby dwarf galaxies, we present a calibrated high-mass X-ray binary (HMXB) luminosity function in the low-m…
