The spatial distributions of the most recently discovered ultra faint dwarf satellites around the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy are compared to the previously reported discs-of-satellites (DoS) of their host galaxies. In our investigation we pay special attention to the selection bias introduced due to the limited sky coverage of SDSS. We find that the new Milky Way satellite galaxies foll...
We present initial results from our study of the outer halo of the Milky Way using a large sample of RR Lyr(ab) variables datamined from the archives of the Palomar Transient Facility. Of the 464 RR Lyr in our sample with distances exceeding 50 kpc, 62 have been observed spectroscopically at the Keck Observatory. vr and σ(vr) are given as a function of distance between 50 and 110 kpc, and a ver...
This article presents results of VLBI observations of regions of H2O maser activity in the Local Group galaxies M33 and IC 10. Since all position measurements were made relative to extragalactic background sources, the proper motions of the two galaxies could be measured. For M33, this provides this galaxy’s three dimensional velocity, showing that this galaxy is moving with a velocity of 190 ±...
We measure for the first time outermost edges of Milky Way (MW) halo in terms depletion and turnaround radii. The inner radius, rid, identified at location maximum infall velocity, separates a growing from draining environment, while rta, marks edge infalling material toward halo, both which are located well outside virial radius. Using motions nearby dwarf galaxies within 3 Mpc, we obtain marg...
Much of our effort in understanding the long-term evolution and morphology of the Milky Way and other galaxies has focused on the equilibrium of its luminous disk. However, the interplay between all components, seen and unseen, is a major cause of observed features and drives evolution. I will review the key underlying dynamics, and in a number of examples, show how this leads to lopsidedness a...
Amajor uncertainty in the dynamical history of the local group of galaxies originates from the unknown transverse speed of the Andromeda galaxy (M31) relative to the Milky Way. We show that the recent VLBA measurement of the proper motion of Andromeda’s satellite, M33, severely constrains the possible values of M31’s proper motion. The condition that M33’s stellar disk will not be tidally disru...

The disk galaxy simulated using our chemo-dynamical galaxy formation code, GCD+, is shown to have a thick disk component. This is evidenced by the velocity dispersion versus age relation for solar neighbourhood stars, which clearly shows an abrupt increase in velocity dispersion at lookback time of approximately 8 Gyrs, and is in excellent agreement with observation. These thick disk stars are ...
