... The SMS program is a critical endeavor to investigate whether the predictions of standard cold dark matter cosmology are consistent with the observed matter distribution in the Milky Way halo. It is the deepest, most extended search for optically elusive dwarf satellite galaxies and tidal streams to date, covering the entire Southern hemisphere. ... However only a few dwarf satellites have been found around the Milky Way to date - 22 dwarfs compared to 500-10,000 predicted by theory (Klypin et al. ...

... Abstract: We present Monte Carlo radiative transfer simulations for spiral galaxies modelled as a stellar disk and a two-phase clumpy dust distribution. ... As a general result, clumpy models are less opaque than the corresponding homogeneous models. ... 0.00 0.15 0.50 0.1 0.5 1.0 2.0 5.0 10.0 0.25 X . ... We have also produced several homogeneous models, to compare to the clumpy models. ... Homogeneous and clumpy models with the same tauV have the same dust mass. ...

... The analysis of two-dimensional galaxy distribution in the Jagiellonian Field (JF) was carried out by the wavelet technique. The positions of galaxies were taken from the Revised Jagiellonian Field Catalogue (RJFC) based on digitized scans of the JF original photographic plates. We discuss briefly the procedure of star/galaxy separation applied by us to the RJFC, the algorithm and the first results of mapping of the selected parts of the RJFC. ...
