It's Not Just Star Formation: A trend of low dark matter densities in the Andromeda dwarf galaxy system

Connor S. Pickett, Michelle L. M. Collins, Justin I. Read +8

Dynamical mass modeling of Andromeda (M31) dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies has revealed a growing trend of lower central dark matter (DM) densities than predicted by pure DM struc…

Mass Modeling the Andromeda Dwarf Galaxies: Andromeda VI and Andromeda XXIII

Connor S. Pickett, Michelle L. M. Collins, R. Michael Rich +7

Accurately mapping the mass profiles of low mass dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies allows us to test predictions made by dark matter (DM) models. To date, such analyses have primari…

The orbital kinematics of eta Carinae over three periastra with a possible detection of the elusive secondary's motion

Emily Strawn, Noel D. Richardson, Anthony F. J. Moffat +14

The binary eta Carinae is the closest example of a very massive star, which may have formed through a merger during its Great Eruption in the mid-nineteenth century. We aimed to co…

The long-term spectral changes of eta Carinae: are they caused by a dissipating occulter as indicated by CMFGEN models?

A. Damineli, D. J. Hillier, F. Navarete +23

Eta Carinae (\,Car) exhibits a unique set of P Cygni profiles with both broad and narrow components. Over many decades, the spectrum has changed -- there has been an increase in…

Changes in the Na D Absorption Components of Carinae Provide Clues on the Location of the Dissipating Central Occulter

Connor S. Pickett, Noel D. Richardson, Theodore Gull +9

The Na D absorption doublet in the spectrum of Carinae is complex, with multiple absorption features associated with the Great Eruption (1840s), the Lesser Eruption (1890s), an…
