- W3100657820 abstract "We use deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) WFC3/IR imaging to study the initial mass function (IMF) of the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Coma Berenices (Com Ber). Our observations reach the lowest stellar mass ever probed in a resolved galaxy, with 50% completeness at ∼0.17 M⊙. Unresolved background galaxies, however, limit our purity below ∼0.23 M⊙. If modeled with a single power law, we find that the IMF slope is (68% credible intervals), compared to a Milky Way value of −2.3. For a broken power law, we obtain a low-mass slope of , a high-mass slope of , and a break mass of M⊙, compared to −1.3, −2.3, and 0.5 M⊙ for a Kroupa IMF, and for a log-normal IMF model, we obtain values of M⊙ for the location parameter and of for σ (0.22 M⊙ and 0.57 for the Chabrier system IMF). All three parameterizations produce similar agreement with the data. Our results agree with previous analyses of shallower optical HST data. However, an analysis of similar optical data of other dwarfs finds IMFs significantly more bottom-light than in the Milky Way. These results suggest two, non-mutually exclusive possibilities: that the discrepancy of the dwarf galaxies' IMF with respect to the Milky Way is at least partly an artifact of using a single-power-law model, and that there is real variance in the IMF at low masses between the currently studied nearby dwarfs, with Com Ber being similar to the Milky Way, but other dwarfs differing significantly." @default.
