Dark matter annihilation and decay in dwarf spheroidal galaxies: The classical and ultrafaint dSphs

V. Bonnivard, C. Combet, M. Daniel +8

Dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies are prime targets for present and future gamma-ray telescopes hunting for indirect signals of particle dark matter. The interpretation of the data…

The VMC ESO Public Survey

M. -R. L. Cioni, P. Anders, G. Bagheri +31

The VISTA near-infrared YJKs survey of the Magellanic Clouds system (VMC) has entered its core phase: about 40% of the observations across the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LM…

Dark matter in the classical dwarf spheroidal galaxies: a robust constraint on the astrophysical factor for gamma-ray flux calculations

M. G. Walker, C. Combet, J. A. Hinton +2

We present a new analysis of the relative detectability of dark matter annihilation in the Milky Way's eight classical dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies. Ours is similar to previ…

The Magellanic Clouds as a template for the study of stellar populations and galaxy interactions

M. -R. L. Cioni, K. Bekki, G. Clementini +18

The Magellanic System represents one of the best places to study the formation and evolution of galaxies. Photometric surveys of various depths, areas and wavelengths have had a si…

Further Evidence for a Merger Origin for the Thick Disk: Galactic Stars Along Lines-of-sight to Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

Rosemary F. G. Wyse, Gerard Gilmore, John E. Norris +5

The history of the Milky Way Galaxy is written in the properties of its stellar populations. Here we analyse stars observed as part of surveys of local dwarf spheroidal galaxies, b…

From young massive star cluster to old globular: the L_V-sigma_0 relationship as a diagnostic tool

R. de Grijs, M. I. Wilkinson, C. N. Tadhunter

We present a new analysis of the properties of the young massive star clusters, which demonstrates that these objects are plausible progenitors of old globular clusters (GCs). The…
