## Abstract Using deep HST/ACS observations of the core of the Perseus Cluster, we identify a large population of dwarf elliptical galaxies down to __MV__ = โ12. All these dwarfs are remarkably smooth in appearance, showing no evidence for internal features that could be the result of tidal process
The dynamics of the dwarf-spheroidal (dSph) galaxies in the gravitational field of the Galaxy is investigated with particular reference to their susceptibility to tidal break-up. Based on the observed paucity of the dSphs at small Galactocentric distances, we put forward the hypothesis that subseque
We discuss the possible sources of dark matter axions in the early universe. In the standard thermal scenario, an axion string network forms at the Peccei-Quinn phase transition T~fa and then radiatively decays into a cosmological background of axions; to be the dark matter, these axions must have a
