Tidal stirring of satellites with shallow density profiles prevents them from being too big to fail
Mihai Tomozeiu, Lucio Mayer, Thomas Quinn
The "too big to fail" problem is revisited by studying the tidal evolution of populations of dwarf satellites with different density profiles. The high resolution cosmological $\rm…

The evolution of dwarf galaxy satellites with different dark matter density profiles in the ErisMod simulations. I. The early infalls
Mihai Tomozeiu, Lucio Mayer, Thomas Quinn
We present the first simulations of tidal stirring of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group carried out in a cosmological context. We use the ErisDARK simulation of a MW-sized galaxy t…
