Background

Seven sisters, near Brighton, tides are removing 60 cm/yr of cliff material.

Properties of galaxies changed by tidal effects

Tidal evolution Kinematic bias Unbound stars can bias the los kinematics

Overestimate the M/L ratio

Can we assume dSphs in equilibrium? Are stars in dSphs good dynamical tracers?

Take away points

Ad-hoc N-body simulation important to interpret

  • bservations of MW satellites!

See next talk for a detailed mass modelling of dSphs Battaglia+15 (Fornax) Ural+12 (Carina) Sanders+18 (Crater II) Sohn+07 (LeoI)

Can we assume Sculptor (Fornax) in equilibrium? No direct tidal effects on Sculptor’s stars

Kinematic catalogues likely free of tidally stripped stars
