We proposed 9 that the UCDs were either unusually large and isolated star clusters or a new type of compact galaxy, perhaps formed by the disruption of nucleated dwarf galaxies. The UCDs are more ...

found more illustrative evidence that nucleated dwarf galaxies transform into ultra-compact dwarf galaxies using observations of the Virgo galaxy cluster obtained with ground-based telescopes.

Dwarf galaxies usually have a total stellar mass of less than one billion suns. That’s a fraction of what a large galaxy contains. For comparison, the Large Magellanic Cloud, just barely above ...

"The supermassive black hole-intermediate black hole binary formed probably after the merger of the Milky Way with the Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus dwarf galaxy." An artist's impression of the Milky Way.

This really is a galaxy far, far away. — -- This really is a galaxy far, far away. A hidden dwarf dark galaxy was discovered four billion light years away from Earth by astrophysicists at ...

Here’s how it works. A dwarf galaxy that is too dim to see but is suspected to orbit our own Milky Way may soon be revealed using a new mathematical technique that analyzes the ripples of gas in ...

The local 'metal-poor' dwarf galaxy was hidden in the glare of a foreground star earning the nickname Peekaboo. Astronomers have discovered that a strange dwarf galaxy hidden for years in our ...
