... This survey will using the 3.5 and 0.9m telescopes of the WIYN Observatory to conduct an unbiased survey for dwarf galaxies. ... What percentage of low mass galaxies experience starburst (SB) episodes? ... There are two kinds of galaxies, those that SB and those that don't. Need a survey that identifies both kinds? ... Therefore, you need to survey a large area to have a sufficient volume to find enough dwarfs. ... Low mass galaxies are very rare, so we need to cover a lot of area. ...

... Travel to E-ELT Armazones . ... Star Clusters . ... ESO's Wide Field Imager has captured the intricate swirls of the spiral galaxy Messier 83, a smaller look-alike of our own Milky Way. ... Both the Milky Way and Messier 83 possess a bar across their galactic nucleus, the dense spherical conglomeration of stars seen at the centre of the galaxies. ... The brighter stars in the foreground are stars in our own galaxy, whilst behind M83 the darkness is peppered with the faint smudges of distant galaxies...

... General information . ... Staff . ... Galaxies, AGN, Cosmology . ... SECCO1: an "almost-dark" dwarf galaxy . Models of galaxy formation and evolution within the Ю?-CDM paradigm can be tested against their predictions on the number and properties of dwarf galaxies and in particular stellar systems highly dominated by dark matter. ... The authors argue that the third possibility is the most likely one and hence SECCO1 would be a new faint dwarf galaxy residing in the Virgo cluster of galaxies. ...
