Observations in the IJKs wave bands covering the central 20'x20' of the Local Group galaxy NGC 6822 have been performed from the William Herschel Telescope in La Palma. They have allowed us to characterize, for the first time in the…
The Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph), with its apparent immense mass to light ratio and compact size, holds many clues to the nature of the enigmatic dark matter. Here we present deep photometric studies of this dwarf galaxy, undertaken…
We present HST WFPC2 and ground-based images of the low surface brightness dwarf Irr/Sph galaxy KKR~25 in Draco. Its colour-magnitude diagram shows red giant branch stars with the tip at I = 22.32 mag, and the presence of some blue stars.…
We present a catalogue of 285 RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph), obtained by combining data from a number of different surveys including the second data release (DR2) of the European Space Agency (ESA)…
The photometric and morphological properties, as well as the star formation history, of the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy are analyzed on the basis of wide field, CCD photometry of the resolved stars covering about 1deg^2. No metallicity…
We have obtained V and I-band photometry for about 17500 stars in the field of the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC3109, located in the outskirts of the Local Group. The photometry allows us to study the stellar populations present inside and…
We present resolved-star VI photometry of the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy IC1613 reaching I~23.5, obtained with the wide-field camera at the 2.5m Isaac Newton Telescope. A fit to the stellar density distribution shows an exponential…
We present a study of the evolved stellar populations in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Fornax based on JHK imaging photometry. The observations cover an 18.5x18.5 arcmin central area with a mosaic of NTT/SOFI images. Our data sample all the…
Measurements of [C/Fe], [Ca/H], and [Fe/H] have been derived from Keck I LRISb spectra of 35 giants in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy. The iron abundances are derived by a spectrum synthesis modeling of the wavelength region from 4850 to…
We report R- and V-band photometry derived from CCD imaging for objects in nine fields in and around the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy. The most distant fields are about 1.3 degrees from the center. We use these data to search for Draco…
(abridged) We present B,V,I CCD photometry of about 40000 stars in four regions of the Fornax dSph. Using the resultant CMDs, many already known age-tracers are investigated, and new CMD features are also detected: we show that blue HB…
We investigate the spatial distribution, kinematics, and metallicity of stars in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy using data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). We identify 155 high probability members of Draco using line…
A near-infrared imaging study of the evolved stellar populations in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Leo I is presented. Based on JHK observations obtained with the WFCAM wide-field array at the UKIRT telescope, we build a near-infrared…
Observations with the Hubble Space Telescope unexpectedly revealed that the dwarf galaxy ESO 006-001 is a near neighbor to the Local Group at a distance of 2.70 +- 0.11 Mpc. The stellar population in the galaxy is well resolved into…
Spectra for stars located redward of the fiducial red giant branches of the Ursa Minor and Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxies have been obtained with the Hobby-Eberly telescope and the Marcario Low Resolution Spectrometer. From a comparison of…
We present accurate and deep multi-band ($g,r,i$) photometry of the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822. The images were collected with wide field cameras at 2m/4m- (INT,CTIO,CFHT) and 8m-class telescopes (SUBARU) covering a 2…
We present deep Hubble Space Telescope single-star photometry of Leo A in B, V, and I. Our new field of view is offset from the centrally located field observed by Tolstoy et al. (1998) in order to expose the halo population of this galaxy.…
We present V and I CCD photometry of suspected low-surface brightness dwarf galaxies detected in a survey covering ~2.4 deg^2 around the central region of the Dorado group of galaxies. The low-surface brightness galaxies were chosen based…
We analysed a population of bright-red (BR) stars in the dwarf irregular galaxy Leo A by using multicolour photometry data obtained with the Subaru/Suprime-Cam ($B$, $V$, $R$, $I$, $H\alpha$) and HST/ACS ($F475W$ & $F814W$) instruments. In…
We present the first spectroscopic analysis of the faint and compact stellar system Draco II (Dra II, M_V=-2.9+/-0.8, r_h=19^{+8}_{-6} pc), recently discovered in the Pan-STARRS1 3{\pi} survey. The observations, conducted with DEIMOS on the…
