Diversity and universality: evolution of dwarf galaxies with self-interacting dark matter
Zhichao Carton Zeng, Annika H. G. Peter, Xiaolong Du +4
Dark matter halos with self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) experience a unique evolutionary phenomenon, in that their central regions eventually collapse to high density through th…
ELVES-Dwarf I: Satellites Systems of Eight Isolated Dwarf Galaxies in the Local Volume
Jiaxuan Li, Jenny E. Greene, Shany Danieli +4
The satellite populations of Milky Way--mass systems have been extensively studied, significantly advancing our understanding of galaxy formation and dark matter physics. In contra…
Merian: A Wide-Field Imaging Survey of Dwarf Galaxies at z~0.06-0.10
Shany Danieli, Erin Kado-Fong, Song Huang +32
We present the Merian Survey, an optical imaging survey optimized for studying the physical properties of bright star-forming dwarf galaxies. Merian is carried out with two medium-…
A Nonparametric Morphological Analysis of H Emission in Bright Dwarfs Using the Merian Survey
Abby Mintz, Jenny E. Greene, Erin Kado-Fong +10
Using medium-band imaging from the newly released Merian Survey, we conduct a nonparametric morphological analysis of H emission maps and stellar continua for a sample of galax…
The HI reservoir in central spiral galaxies and the implied star formation process
Jing Dou, Yingjie Peng, Qiusheng Gu +14
The cold interstellar medium (ISM) as the raw material for star formation is critical to understanding galaxy evolution. It is generally understood that galaxies stop making stars…
