Extremely rare in field halo, membership very likely Very far out, parameters and velocity confirmed by follow-up:
Segue 1 is very extended! Both systems show a large spread in iron
Implies dark halo for self-enrichment (cf Simon et al 2010) Caveat: Segue 1 in complex part of Galaxy: higher metallicity stars?

From kinematics to dynamics: From kinematics to dynamics: Jeans equation, then full distribution function Jeans equation, then full distribution function
modellingmodelling Jeans equation relates spatial distribution of stars and their Jeans equation relates spatial distribution of stars and their
velocity dispersion tensor to underlying mass profilevelocity dispersion tensor to underlying mass profile
Either (i) determine mass profile from projected dispersion profile, with assumed isotropy, and smooth functional fit to the light profile
Or (ii) assume a parameterised mass model M(r) and velocity dispersion anisotropy β(r) and fit dispersion profile to find best forms of these (for fixed light profile) beware unphysical models!beware unphysical models!
Jeans’ equation results allow objective comparisons among Jeans’ equation results allow objective comparisons among galaxies: isotropy is simplest assumption, derive mass galaxies: isotropy is simplest assumption, derive mass profileprofile
Latter only possible for large sample sizes more luminous dSph, now
Mass-anisotropy degeneracy
Mass density profiles:Jeans’ equation with assumed isotropic velocity dispersion:All consistent with cores (independentanalysis agrees, Wu 07, plus gas-rich systems, Oh et al 08)
• These Jeans’ models are to provide the most objective comparison among galaxies, which all have different baryonic histories and hence expect different ‘feedback’
CDM predicts slope of −1.2 at 1% of virial radius, asymptotes to −1 (Diemand et al. 04) as indicated in plot
