A Testable Conspiracy: Simulating Baryonic Effects on Self-Interacting Dark Matter Halos
Oliver D. Elbert, James S. Bullock, Manoj Kaplinghat +3
We investigate the response of self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) halos to the growth of galaxy potentials using idealized simulations, each run in tandem with standard collisionl…
Core Formation in Dwarf Halos with Self Interacting Dark Matter: No Fine-Tuning Necessary
Oliver D. Elbert, James S. Bullock, Shea Garrison-Kimmel +3
We investigate the effect of self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) on the density profiles of isolated dwarf dark matter halos -- the scale of relev…
Cosmological Simulations of Decaying Dark Matter: Implications for Small-scale Structure of Dark Matter Halos
Mei-Yu Wang, Annika H. G. Peter, Louis E. Strigari +4
We present a set of N-body simulations of a class of models in which an unstable dark matter particle decays into a stable non-interacting dark matter particle, with decay lifetime…
The AGORA High-Resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project
Ji-hoon Kim, Tom Abel, Oscar Agertz +43
We introduce the AGORA project, a comprehensive numerical study of well-resolved galaxies within the LCDM cosmology. Cosmological hydrodynamic simulations with force resolutions of…
How to Zoom: Bias, Contamination, and Lagrange Volumes in Multimass Cosmological Simulations
Jose Oñorbe, Shea Garrison-Kimmel, Ariyeh H. Maller +3
We perform a suite of multimass cosmological zoom simulations of individual dark matter halos and explore how to best select Lagrangian regions for resimulation without contaminati…
Can Feedback Solve the Too Big to Fail Problem?
Shea Garrison-Kimmel, Miguel Rocha, Michael Boylan-Kolchin +2
The observed central densities of Milky Way dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) are significantly lower than the densities of the largest (Vmax about 35 km/s) subhalos found in dissi…
