Abstract

We report a progress on our project of the study of the simulated sample of LG dwarf galaxies. We use CLUES-HESTIA simulation results to extract star formation histories of the simulated dwarf galaxies. Especial interest presents a recent 2 Gyrs, which mainly determine the ongoing star formation status of a dwarf galaxy and its morphological status as well. Another important part of the study is environmental dependence of the star formation history of the dwarf galaxies. Focusing on the star formation and evolution of dwarf spheroidal galaxies, which have evolved in isolation, we intend to shed some light to this rare type of nearby dwarf galaxies.
