Identification of old tidal dwarfs near early-type galaxies from deep imaging and H i observations
It has recently been proposed that the dwarf spheroidal galaxies located in the Local Group discs of satellites (DoSs) may be tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs) born in a major merger at least 5Gyr ago. Whether TDGs can live that long is still poorly constrained by observations. As part of deep optical and...
