In order to clarify the origin of these objects, we have used self-consistent numerical simulations to study the dynamical evolution a nucleated dwarf galaxy would undergo if orbiting the centre of ...

Abstract: We present radial surface brightness profiles for all five globular clusters in the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy, and for the four present members of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal ...

Also known as Abell S636, the Antlia cluster is the third-nearest to the Local Group after the Virgo cluster and Fornax cluster ... Antlia cluster may also contain dwarf spheroidal galaxies and the ...
