No Observational Evidence for Dark Matter Nor a Large Metallicity Spread in the Extreme Milky Way Satellite Ursa Major III / UNIONS 1

William Cerny, Daisy Bissonette, Alexander P. Ji +9

The extremely-low-luminosity, compact Milky Way satellite Ursa Major III / UNIONS 1 (UMaIII/U1; $L_{V} = 11 L_{⊙}$ ; $a_{1/2} = 3$ pc) was found to have a substantial velocity d…

A Bimodal Metallicity Distribution Function in the Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Reticulum II

Alice M. Luna, Alexander P. Ji, Anirudh Chiti +6

Star formation in ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs, $M_{*} < 1 0^{5} M_{⊙}$ ) is suppressed by reionization, but may not be completely quenched. The metallicity distribution function (MD…
