The Milky Way's dwarf spheroidal satellites include the nearest, smallest and least luminous galaxies known. They also exhibit the largest discrepancies between dynamical and luminous masses. This article reviews the development of empirical constraints on the structure and kinematics of dSph stellar populations and discusses how this phenomenology translates into constraints on the amount and distribution of dark matter within dSphs. Some implications for cosmology and the particle nature of dark matter are discussed, and some topics/questions for future study are identified.

  1. Searching for dark matter annihilating into light long-lived mediators from stars inside dwarf spheroidal galaxies

    astro-ph.HE 2025-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Fermi-LAT observations of ten dwarf spheroidals place upper limits on dark matter-nucleon scattering by modeling stellar capture and annihilation through long-lived mediators.
