First Clear Signature of an Extended Dark Matter Halo in the Draco Dwarf Spheroidal

Jan T. Kleyna, Mark I. Wilkinson, N. Wyn Evans +1

We present the first clear evidence for an extended dark matter halo in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy based on a sample of new radial velocities for 159 giant stars out to larg…

Dark Matter in Dwarf Spheroidals I: Models

M. I. Wilkinson, J. Kleyna, N. W. Evans +1

This paper introduces a new two-parameter family of dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy models. The density distribution has a Plummer profile and falls like the inverse fourth power of…
