A dark matter profile to model diverse feedback-induced core sizes of CDM haloes
Alexandres Lazar, James S. Bullock, Michael Boylan-Kolchin +11
We analyze the cold dark matter density profiles of 54 galaxy halos simulated with FIRE-2 galaxy formation physics, each resolved within of the halo virial radius. These ha…

Dark and luminous satellites of LMC-mass galaxies in the FIRE simulations
Ethan D. Jahn, Laura V. Sales, Andrew Wetzel +5
Within CDM, dwarf galaxies like the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) are expected to host numerous dark matter subhalos, several of which should host faint dwarf companions. Recent…
