Search for Gamma-Ray Emission from DES Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy Candidates with Fermi-LAT Data

LAT Collaboration, The DES Collaboration, A. Drlica-Wagner +123

Due to their proximity, high dark-matter content, and apparent absence of non-thermal processes, Milky Way dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies (dSphs) are excellent targets for the…

Eight New Milky Way Companions Discovered in First-Year Dark Energy Survey Data

The DES Collaboration, K. Bechtol, A. Drlica-Wagner +91

We report the discovery of eight new Milky Way companions in ~1,800 deg^2 of optical imaging data collected during the first year of the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Each system is id…
