The Energetics of Cusp Destruction
Aaron J. Maxwell, James Wadsley, H. M. P. Couchman
We present a new analytic estimate for the energy required to create a constant density core within a dark matter halo. Our new estimate, based on more realistic assumptions, leads…
The Celestial Buffet: multiple populations and globular cluster formation in dwarf galaxies
Aaron J. Maxwell, James Wadsley, H. M. P. Couchman +1
We present a framework that explains the commonly observed variation in light element abundances in globular clusters. If globular clusters form in the centres of dwarf galaxies, t…
Building the Stellar Halo Through Feedback in Dwarf Galaxies
Aaron J. Maxwell, James Wadsley, H. M. P. Couchman +1
We present a new model for the formation of stellar halos in dwarf galaxies. We demonstrate that the stars and star clusters that form naturally in the inner regions of dwarfs are…
C_2 in Peculiar DQ White Dwarfs
Patrick B. Hall, Aaron J. Maxwell
White dwarfs (WDs) with carbon absorption features in their optical spectra are known as DQ WDs. The subclass of peculiar DQ WDs are cool objects (T_eff<6000 K) which show molecula…
