A Census of Dwarf Galaxy Satellites around LMC-mass Galaxy NGC 2403

A Census of Dwarf Galaxy Satellites around LMC-mass Galaxy NGC 2403

We present the first comprehensive census of the satellite population around a Large Magellanic Cloud stellar-mass galaxy, as part of the Magellanic Analog Dwarf Companions and Stellar Halos (MADCASH) survey. We have surveyed NGC 2403 ( D = 3.0 Mpc) with the Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam imager out to a...
