Testing the Stellar Feedback-driven Breathing Mode in Low-mass Galaxies with Gas Kinematics
Yifei Luo, Joseph Wick, Alexie Leauthaud +7
Hydrodynamic simulations have proposed that stellar feedback and bursty star-formation can produce dark matter cores in low-mass galaxies. A key prediction is that feedback-driven…

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 Merian Survey: Design, Construction, and Characterization of a Filter Set Optimized to Find Dwarf Galaxies and Measure their Dark Matter Halo Properties with Weak Lensing
Yifei Luo, Alexie Leauthaud, Jenny Greene +28
The Merian survey is mapping 850 degrees of the Hyper Suprime-Cam Strategic Survey Program (HSC-SSP) wide layer with two medium-band filters on the 4-meter Victor M. Bla…
