Physical parameters of red supergiants in dwarf irregular galaxies in the Local Group
N. E. Britavskiy, A. Z. Bonanos, A. Herrero +6
Increasing the statistics of evolved massive stars in the Local Group enables investigating their evolution at different metallicities. During the late stages of stellar evolution,…
Galactic Winds in Low-Mass Galaxies
Kristen B. W. McQuinn, Liese van Zee, Evan D. Skillman
Stellar-feedback driven outflows are predicted to play a fundamental role in the baryon cycle of low-mass galaxies. However, observational constraints of winds in nearby dwarf gala…
Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars in the Nearby Dwarf Galaxy Leo P
Steven R. Goldman, Martha L. Boyer, Kristen B. McQuinn +7
We have conducted a highly sensitive census of the evolved-star population in the metal-poor dwarf galaxy Leo P and detected four asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star candidates. Leo…
Tentative Detection of the Circumgalactic Medium of the Isolated Low-Mass Dwarf Galaxy WLM
Y. Zheng, M. E. Putman, A. Emerick +7
We report a tentative detection of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of WLM, an isolated, low-mass (log), dwarf irregular galaxy in the Local Group (LG). We an…
HETDEX Pilot Survey. VI. [OIII] Emitters and Expectations for a Local Sample of Star Forming Galaxies in HETDEX
Briana Indahl, Greg Zeimann, Gary J. Hill +8
We assemble an unbiased sample of 29 galaxies with [O II] and/or [O III] detections at from the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) Pi…
Using the Tip of the Red Giant Branch as a Distance Indicator in the Near Infrared
Kristen. B. W. McQuinn, Martha Boyer, Evan D. Skillman +1
The tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) is a well-established standard candle used to measure distances to nearby galaxies. The TRGB luminosity is typically measured in the I-band,…
