Phase-space structure in the local dark matter distribution and its signature in direct detection experiments
Mark Vogelsberger, Amina Helmi, Volker Springel +6
We study predictions for dark matter phase-space structure near the Sun based on high-resolution simulations of six galaxy halos taken from the Aquarius Project. The local DM densi…
A blueprint for detecting supersymmetric dark matter in the Galactic halo
Volker Springel, Simon D. M. White, Carlos S. Frenk +6
Dark matter is the dominant form of matter in the universe, but its nature is unknown. It is plausibly an elementary particle, perhaps the lightest supersymmetric partner of known…
The Unorthodox Orbits of Substructure Halos
Aaron D. Ludlow, Julio F. Navarro, Volker Springel +3
(Abridged) We use cosmological N-body simulations to study the properties of substructure halos in galaxy-sized dark matter halos. We extend prior work on the subject by considerin…
Strangers in the night: Discovery of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy on its first Local Group infall
S. C. Chapman, J. Penarrubia, R. Ibata +9
We present spectroscopic observations of the AndXII dwarf spheroidal galaxy using DEIMOS/Keck-II, showing it to be moving rapidly through the Local Group (-556 km/s heliocentric ve…
A Universal Density Profile for Dark and Luminous Matter?
David Merritt, Julio F. Navarro, Aaron Ludlow +1
We explore similarities in the luminosity distribution of early type galaxies and the mass profiles of LCDM halos. The spatial structure of these systems may be accurately describe…
