Abstract: |
The dwarf spheroidal galaxies around the Milky Way (MW)
belong to the most poorly understood class of astronomical objects
and serve as the most challenging targets of astrophysical research
for the reasons of cosmology, evolution of satellite galaxies,
faintest dwarf galaxies, and accretion history of the MW.
In order to yield a deeper insight into these perspectives, numerical
simulations from cosmological to galactic scales and semi-analytical galaxy models have been undertaken by numerous authors which are
discussed here. Furthermore, a new comprehensive chemo-dynamical
approach is presented and its results are highlighted. |
