An observer's guide to the (Local Group) dwarf galaxies: predictions for their own dwarf satellite populations

A recent surge in the discovery of new ultrafaint dwarf satellites of the Milky Way has inspired the idea of searching for faint satellites, 10³M[subscript ⊙] < M* < 10⁶M[subscript ⊙], around less massive field galaxies in the Local Group. Such satellites would be subject to weaker environment...
