Hubble Space Telescope Observations of Two Faint Dwarf Satellites of Nearby LMC Analogs from MADCASH

Jeffrey L. Carlin, Burcin Mutlu-Pakdil, Denija Crnojevic +11

We present a deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging study of two dwarf galaxies in the halos of Local Volume Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) analogs. These dwarfs were discovered a…

Planes of satellites around Milky Way/M31-mass galaxies in the FIRE simulations and comparisons with the Local Group

Jenna Samuel, Andrew Wetzel, Sierra Chapman +5

We examine the prevalence, longevity, and causes of planes of satellite dwarf galaxies, as observed in the Local Group. We use 14 Milky Way/Andromeda-(MW/M31) mass host galaxies fr…

The HI Structure of the Local Volume Dwarf Galaxy Pisces A

Luca Beale, Jennifer Donovan Meyer, Erik J. Tollerud +2

Dedicated HI surveys have recently led to a growing category of low-mass galaxies found in the Local Volume. We present synthesis imaging of one such galaxy, Pisces A, a low-mass d…

Discovery of an Ultra-Faint Stellar System near the Magellanic Clouds with the DECam Local Volume Exploration (DELVE) Survey

W. Cerny, A. B. Pace, A. Drlica-Wagner +29

We report the discovery of a new ultra-faint stellar system found near the Magellanic Clouds in the DECam Local Volume Exploration (DELVE) Survey. This new system, DELVE J015568…

Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE). IV. The Stochasticity of Ram Pressure Stripping in Galactic Halos

Raymond C. Simons, Molly S. Peeples, Jason Tumlinson +9

We study ram pressure stripping in simulated Milky Way-like halos at z>=2 from the Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies In Enzo (FOGGIE) project. These simulations reach exquisite resolutio…
