Magellan/M2FS spectroscopy of Tucana 2 and Grus 1

Based on simultaneous estimates of line of sight velocity and stellar-atmospheric parameters, we identify 8 and 7 stars as probable members of Tuc 2 and and Gru 1, respectively. Our sample for Tuc 2 is sufficient to resolve an internal velocity dispersion of 8.6^+4.4^_-2.7_km/s about a mean of -129.1+/-3.5km/s (solar rest frame), and to estimate a mean metallicity of [Fe/H]=-2.23^+0.18^_-0.12_.

These results place Tuc 2 on chemodynamical scaling relations followed by dwarf galaxies, suggesting a dominant dark matter component with dynamical mass 2.7^+3.1^_-1.3_x10^6^M_{sun}_ enclosed within the central ~160pc, and dynamical mass-to-light ratio 1913^+2234^_-950_M_{sun}_/L_{nu},{sun}_. For Gru 1 we estimate a mean velocity of -140.5^+2.4^_-1.6_km/s and a mean metallicity of [Fe/H]=-1.42^+0.55^_-0.42_ but our sample does not resolve Gru 1's velocity dispersion.
