Abstract

We show, with our numerical simulations of dwarf galaxies, orbiting the Milky Way, that over-densities in tidal tails are a natural outcome of their formation process. We analyse the short-falls of the published analytical predictions and show which parameters can be deduced from measuring the tidal tails.
