Linked from

The 13 pages that link to Dwarf galaxy, each with the reason it gives.

• Local GroupNarrower topic: Most known Local Group members are dwarfs orbiting its two dominant galaxies.

• Galaxy formation and evolutionBroader topic: Dwarfs expose how feedback and reionization affect galaxy formation at small scales.

• Large Magellanic CloudNarrower topic: The Large Magellanic Cloud is a nearby example of this broad galaxy class.

• Small Magellanic CloudNarrower topic: The Small Magellanic Cloud belongs to this broad class of galaxies.

• Irregular galaxyRelated: Many irregular galaxies are dwarfs, though irregular shape and small size are distinct traits.

• Magellanic CloudsNarrower topic: Both Clouds are low-mass galaxies rather than detached gas clouds.

• Omega CentauriNarrower topic: A stripped dwarf-galaxy origin could explain the cluster’s multiple stellar populations.

• Tidal dwarf galaxyNarrower topic: Tidal dwarfs belong to this broad class but arise through a distinct formation route.

• Triangulum GalaxyCompared with: M33 is a substantial spiral, unlike the Local Group’s many dwarf companions.

• Satellite galaxyNarrower topic: Many satellites are dwarfs, but satellite describes an orbit and dwarf describes size.

• Low surface brightness galaxyRelated: Many low surface brightness galaxies are dwarfs, but low brightness does not require low total luminosity.

• Dark galaxyCompared with: Even faint dwarf galaxies contain stars that distinguish them from starless candidates.

• Galaxy rotation problemBroader topic: Many dwarf galaxies show strong mass discrepancies despite containing relatively little visible matter.
