A MARVEL-ous Study of How Well Galaxy Shapes Reflect Dark Matter Halo Shapes in Cold Dark Matter Simulations

We present a 3D shape analysis of both dark matter (DM) and stellar matter (SM) in simulated dwarf galaxies to determine whether stellar shape traces DM shape. Using 80 central and satellite dwarf galaxies from three simulation suites (“Marvelous Massive Dwarfs,” “Marvelous Dwarfs,” and the “DC Just...
