The predicted luminous satellite populations around SMC- and LMC-mass galaxies – a missing satellite problem around the LMC?
Recent discovery of many dwarf satellite galaxies in the direction of the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds (SMC and LMC) provokes questions of their origins, and what they can reveal about galaxy evolution theory. Here, we predict the satellite stellar mass function of Magellanic Cloud-mass host ga...
