Triangulum II. Not Especially Dense After All
نویسندگان
چکیده
Among the Milky Way satellites discovered in the past three years, TriangulumII has presented the most difficulty in revealing its dynamical status. Kirby et al. identified it as the most dark-matter-dominated galaxy known, with a mass-to-light ratio within the half-light radius of M L 360

Triangulum Ii: Possibly a Very Dense Ultra-faint Dwarf Galaxy
Laevens et al. recently discovered TriangulumII (TriII), a satellite of the Milky Way. Its Galactocentric distance is 36 kpc, and its luminosity is only L 450 . Using Keck/DEIMOS, we measured the radial velocities of six member stars within 1 2 of the center of TriII, and we found a velocity dispersion of s = + 5.1 km s v 1.4 4.0 1. We also measured the metallicities of three stars and fou...
متن کاملSystematics of the Dendropsophus leucophyllatus species complex (Anura: Hylidae): Cryptic diversity and the description of two new species
Genetic data in studies of systematics of Amazonian amphibians frequently reveal that purportedly widespread single species in reality comprise species complexes. This means that real species richness may be significantly higher than current estimates. Here we combine genetic, morphological, and bioacoustic data to assess the phylogenetic relationships and species boundaries of two Amazonian sp...
متن کامل'Candidatus Streptomyces philanthi', an endosymbiotic streptomycete in the antennae of Philanthus digger wasps.
Symbiotic interactions with bacteria are essential for the survival and reproduction of many insects. The European beewolf (Philanthus triangulum, Hymenoptera, Crabronidae) engages in a highly specific association with bacteria of the genus Streptomyces that appears to protect beewolf offspring against infection by pathogens. Using transmission and scanning electron microscopy, the bacteria wer...
متن کاملبررسی نقش سونوگرافی تکمیلی در تشخیص سرطان پستان
Introduction & Objective: The breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women and in recent years it is seen in younger ages. Because of dense breast tissue in these ages, the mammography sensitivity for breast cancer detection is reduced, so high quality ultrasonography (US) as a combined screening method is effective. The aim of this study is the evaluation of the mammographic finding ...
متن کاملPandas’ Cubs: Discovery of Two New Dwarf Galaxies in the Surroundings of the Andromeda and Triangulum Galaxies
We present the discovery of two new dwarf galaxies, Andromeda XXI and Andromeda XXII, located in the surroundings of the Andromeda and Triangulum galaxies (M31 and M33). These discoveries stem from the first year data of the Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey (PAndAS), a photometric survey of the M31/M33 group conducted with the Megaprime/MegaCam wide-field camera mounted on the Canada-France-...
