Population gradient in the Sextans dSph: comprehensive mapping of a dwarf galaxy by Suprime-Cam

We present the deep and wide V and I-c photometry of the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) taken by the Suprime-Cam imager on the Subaru Telescope, which extends out to the tidal radius. The colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) reaches two magnitudes below ...

VICS82: The VISTA-CFHT Stripe 82 Near-infrared Survey

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Johan Comparat

We present the VISTA-CFHT Stripe 82 (VICS82) survey: a near-infrared (J+K-s) survey covering 150 square degrees of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) equatorial Stripe 82 to an average depth of J = 21.9 AB mag and K-s = 21.4 AB mag (80% completeness limit ...

Computational issues in chemo-dynamical modelling of the formation and evolution of galaxies

Pascale Jablonka, Yves Revaz, Alexis Arnaudon, Vivien François Bonvin, Matthew Luke Nichols

Chemo-dynamical N-body simulations are an essential tool for understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies. As the number of observationally determined stellar abundances continues to climb, these simulations are able to provide new constraints on ...

Carbon and nitrogen abundances of individual stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo

We present [C/Fe] and [N/Fe] abundance ratios and CH(lambda 4300) and S(lambda 3883) index measurements for 94 red giant branch (RGB) stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy from VLT/VIMOS MOS observations at a resolving power R = 1150 at 4020 A. Thi ...

Searching for decaying dark matter in deep XMM-Newton observation of the Draco dwarf spheroidal

Alexey Boyarsky, Andrii Neronov, Oleg Ruchayskiy

We present results of a search for the 3.5 keV emission line in our recent very long (similar to 1.4 Ms) XMM-Newton observation of the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy. The astrophysical X-ray emission from such dark matter-dominated galaxies is faint, thus t ...

Limits to dark matter annihilation cross-section from a combined analysis of MAGIC and Fermi-LAT observations of dwarf satellite galaxies

Thomas Günther Bretz

We present the first joint analysis of gamma-ray data from the MAGIC Cherenkov telescopes and the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) to search for gamma-ray signals from dark matter annihilation in dwarf satellite galaxies. We combine 158 hours of Segue 1 ob ...

The early days of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy

We present the high-resolution spectroscopic study of five -3.9

The last stages of star formation in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Sextans

Romaine Theler

This thesis is anchored in the research of better understanding of the chemical evolution of galaxies. Many dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSph) are orbiting the Milky Way displaying various star formation histories. The formation of these dwarf galaxies and t ...

The post-infall evolution of a satellite galaxy

Pascale Jablonka, Yves Revaz, Matthew Luke Nichols

We describe a new method that only focuses on the local region surrounding an infalling dwarf in an effort to understand how the hot baryonic halo alters the chemodynamical evolution of dwarf galaxies. Using this method, we examine how a dwarf, similar to ...

Decaying dark matter: the case for a deep X-ray observation of Draco

Alexey Boyarsky, Oleg Ruchayskiy

Recent studies of M31, the Galactic Centre (GC), and galaxy clusters have made tentative detections of an X-ray line at similar to 3.5 keV that could be produced by decaying dark matter. We use high-resolution simulations of the Aquarius project to predict ...
