The Dark Matter Density Profile Of The Fornax Dwarf

Jardel, John R.; Gebhardt, Karl (2012-02)

We construct axisymmetric Schwarzschild models to measure the mass profile of the Local Group dwarf galaxy Fornax. These models require no assumptions to be made about the orbital anisotropy of the stars, as is the case ...

The Central Dark Matter Distribution Of NGC 2976

Adams, Joshua J.; Gebhardt, Karl; Blanc, Guillermo A.; Fabricius, Maximilian H.; Hill, Gary J.; Murphy, Jeremy D.; van den Bosch, Remco C. E.; van de Ven, Glenn (2012-01)

We study the mass distribution in the late-type dwarf galaxy NGC 2976 through stellar kinematics obtained with the Visible Integral Field ReplicableUnit Spectrograph Prototype and anisotropic Jeans models as a test of ...
