Relationship between the distances and spectroscopically determined J-factors of known dsphs is derived with three different techniques: ( ve priors (Geringer-Sameth et al. 015a), (center) Dynamical Bayesian hierarchical modeling Modeling (Martinez 015), and (right) allowing for more flexible parametri distribution and orbital anisotropy profile (Bonnivard et al. 015a). We also include recently derived J-factor estimates for Reticulum II (Simon e d et al. 015b) and Tucana II (Walker et al. 015b) with J-factors for other dsphs that were calculated in a similar manner (see references for each p actor scaling relation (Equation ()) to the data in each panel, yielding log ( J GeVcm ) = { 18.1, 18.3, 18.4}, for the left, center, and rig ely; these relationships are plotted as solid, short dashed, and long dashed red lines. log 10 J J pred 0 =-log 10 D 100 kpc, Figure 3.
