Satellites Around Milky Way Analogs: Tension in the Number and Fraction of Quiescent Satellites Seen in Observations Versus Simulations

Ananthan Karunakaran, Kristine Spekkens, Kyle A. Oman +13

We compare the star-forming properties of satellites around Milky Way (MW) analogs from the Stage~II release of the Satellites Around Galactic Analogs Survey (SAGA-II) to those fro…

The tidal evolution of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal and its globular clusters

Alexandra Borukhovetskaya, Raphael Errani, Julio F. Navarro +2

The dark matter (DM) content of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy inferred from its kinematics is substantially lower than expected from LCDM cosmological simulations. We use N-bo…

Velocity-dependent J-factors for annihilation radiation from cosmological simulations

Erin Board, Nassim Bozorgnia, Louis E. Strigari +6

We determine the dark matter pair-wise relative velocity distribution in a set of Milky Way-like halos in the Auriga and APOSTLE simulations. Focusing on the smooth halo component,…

Stellar splashback: the edge of the intracluster light

Alis J. Deason, Kyle A. Oman, Azadeh Fattahi +8

We examine the outskirts of galaxy clusters in the C-EAGLE simulations to quantify the `edges' of the stellar and dark matter distribution. The radius of the steepest slope in the…

Magellanic satellites in CDM cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of the Local Group

Isabel M. E. Santos-Santos, Azadeh Fattahi, Laura V. Sales +1

We use the APOSTLE CDM cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of the Local Group to study the recent accretion of massive satellites into the halo of Milky Way (MW)-sized galax…

The mass of the Milky Way out to 100 kpc using halo stars

Alis J. Deason, Denis Erkal, Vasily Belokurov +9

We use a distribution function analysis to estimate the mass of the Milky Way out to 100 kpc using a large sample of halo stars. These stars are compiled from the literature, and t…
