The great disk of Milky-Way satellites and cosmological sub-structures.

KROUPA P., THEIS C. and BOILY C.M.

Abstract (from CDS):

We show that the shape of the observed distribution of Milky Way (MW) satellites is inconsistent with their being drawn from a cosmological sub-structure population with a confidence of 99.5 per cent. Most of the MW satellites therefore cannot be related to dark-matter dominated satellites.
