Ultrafaint Dwarf Galaxy Candidates in the M81 Group: Signatures of Group Accretion
Eric F. Bell, Adam Smercina, Paul A. Price +8
The faint and ultrafaint dwarf galaxies in the Local Group form the observational bedrock upon which our understanding of small-scale cosmology rests. In order to understand whethe…
The Global Dynamical Atlas of the Milky Way mergers: Constraints from Gaia EDR3 based orbits of globular clusters, stellar streams and satellite galaxies
Khyati Malhan, Rodrigo A. Ibata, Sanjib Sharma +7
The Milky Way halo was predominantly formed by the merging of numerous progenitor galaxies. However, our knowledge of this process is still incomplete, especially in regard to the…
Uncertainties associated with the backward integration of dwarf satellites using simple parametric potentials
Richard D'Souza, Eric F. Bell
In order to backward integrate the orbits of Milky Way (MW) dwarf galaxies, much effort has been invested in recent years to constrain their initial phase-space coordinates. Yet eq…
The infall of dwarf satellite galaxies are influenced by their host's massive accretions
Richard D'Souza, Eric F. Bell
Recent progress in constraining the massive accretions (>1:10) experienced by the Milky Way (MW) and the Andromeda galaxy (M31) offers an opportunity to understand the dwarf galaxy…
Is NGC 300 a pure exponential disk galaxy?
In Sung Jang, Roelof S. de Jong, I. Minchev +6
NGC 300 is a low-mass disk galaxy in the Sculptor group. In the literature, it has been identified as a pure exponential disk galaxy, as its luminosity profile could be well fitted…
The Saga of M81: Global View of a Massive Stellar Halo in Formation
Adam Smercina, Eric F. Bell, Paul A. Price +7
Recent work has shown that Milky Way-mass galaxies display an incredible range of stellar halo properties, yet the origin of this diversity is unclear. The nearby galaxy M81 cu…
