ID-MAGE. II. The Star-forming Satellites of Low-mass Hosts

Abstract We present the first results of the ongoing Identifying Dwarfs of Magellanic Cloud Analog GalaxiEs (ID-MAGE) survey. This includes new velocities of 78 satellite candidates identified around 35 nearby LMC- and SMC-mass hosts ( D = 4–10 Mpc). Using new Green Bank Telescop...

Radial Stellar Age Gradients in 42 Local Volume Dwarf Galaxies

Abstract We present radial stellar age gradients measured from star formation histories (SFHs) fit to resolved color–magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of 42 Local Volume dwarfs (6 ≲ Log M ⋆ / M ⊙ ≲ 9), spatially divided into elliptical annuli. Ages in each annulus are quantified using τ...
