DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Alex Goater (University of Surrey)\nUltra-faint dwar
 f galaxies (UFDs) are often found in large numbers in close proximity to t
 he Milky Way and other massive spiral galaxies. As such\, their projected 
 stellar ellipticity and extended light distributions are often thought to 
 owe to tidal forces. I discuss the projected stellar ellipticities and fai
 nt stellar outskirts of isolated ultra-faints\, drawn from the `Engineerin
 g Dwarfs at Galaxy Formation’s Edge’ (EDGE) cosmological simulation su
 ite. I find that\, in spite of their tidal isolation\, the simulated dwarf
 s exhibit a wide range of projected ellipticities ($0.03 \n\nhttps://meeti
