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…

Eridanus II: A Fossil from Reionization with an Off-Center Star Cluster

Joshua D. Simon, Thomas M. Brown, Alex Drlica-Wagner +10

We present deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) photometry of the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Eridanus II (Eri II). Eri II, which has an absolute magnitude of M_V = -7.1, is located at a…

The Elusive Distance Gradient in the Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Hercules: A Combined Hubble Space Telescope and Gaia View

Burçin Mutlu-Pakdil, David J. Sand, Denija Crnojević +6

The ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Hercules has an extremely elongated morphology with both photometric overdensities and kinematic members at large radii, suggesting that it may be tida…

A Deeper Look at DES Dwarf Galaxy Candidates: Grus I and Indus II

Sarah A. Cantu, Andrew B. Pace, Jennifer Marshall +11

We present deep - and -band Magellan/Megacam photometry of two dwarf galaxy candidates discovered in the Dark Energy Survey (DES), Grus I and Indus II (DES J2038-4609). For t…

The Satellite Luminosity Function of M101 into the Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Regime

P. Bennet, D. J. Sand, D. Crnojevic +4

We have obtained deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging of four faint and ultra-faint dwarf galaxy candidates in the vicinity of M101 - Dw21, Dw22, Dw23 and Dw35, originally dis…

A Gaia-based catalog of candidate stripped nuclei and luminous globular clusters in the halo of Centaurus A

Karina T. Voggel, Anil C. Seth, David J. Sand +4

Tidally stripped galaxy nuclei and luminous globular clusters (GCs) are important tracers of the halos and assembly histories of nearby galaxies, but are difficult to reliably iden…
