The lowest luminosity (L) Milky Way satellite galaxies represent the extreme lower limit of the
galaxy luminosity function. These ultra-faint dwarfs are the oldest, most dark matter …

When interpreted within the standard framework of Newtonian gravity and dynamics, the
kinematics of stars and gas in dwarf galaxies reveals that most of these systems are …

Abstract We use Gaia Data Release 2 to determine the mean proper motions for 150 Milky
Way globular clusters (almost the entire known population), with a typical uncertainty of 0.05 …

We study the link between baryons and dark matter (DM) in 240 galaxies with spatially
resolved kinematic data. Our sample spans 9 dex in stellar mass and includes all …

We introduce a method for measuring the slopes of mass profiles within dwarf spheroidal
(dSph) galaxies directly from stellar spectroscopic data and without adopting a dark matter …

This is the first of a series of papers presenting the results from our survey of 25 Galactic
globular clusters with the MUSE integral-field spectrograph. In combination with our …

We apply the Jeans equation to estimate masses for eight of the brightest dwarf spheroidal
(dSph) galaxies. For Fornax, the dSph with the largest kinematic data set, we obtain a model …

We present structural parameters from a wide-field homogeneous imaging survey of Milky
Way satellites carried out with the MegaCam imagers on the 3.6 m Canada–France–Hawaii …

Dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies are prime targets for present and future γ-ray telescopes
hunting for indirect signals of particle dark matter. The interpretation of the data requires …

We present the results of a comprehensive Keck/DEIMOS spectroscopic survey of the ultra-
faint Milky Way satellite galaxy Segue 1. We have obtained velocity measurements for …
