The Milky Way's dwarf satellite galaxies in [L]CDM: orbital ellipticities and internal structure

Current models of cosmology and galaxy formation are possibly at odds with observations of small-scale galaxies. Such is the case for the dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies of the Milky Way (MW), where tension exists in explaining their observed abundance, mass, and internal structure. Here we present...
