A mass-dependent density profile for dark matter haloes including the influence of galaxy formation
Arianna Di Cintio, Chris B. Brook, Aaron A. Dutton +3
We introduce a mass dependent density profile to describe the distribution of dark matter within galaxies, which takes into account the stellar-to-halo mass dependence of the respo…
Galaxy formation
Joseph Silk, Arianna Di Cintio, Irina Dvorkin
Galaxy formation is at the forefront of observation and theory in cosmology. An improved understanding is essential for improving our knowledge both of the cosmological parameters,…
The stellar-to-halo mass relation for Local Group galaxies
C. B. Brook, A. Di Cintio, A. Knebe +4
We contend that a single power law halo mass distribution is appropriate for direct matching to the stellar masses of observed Local Group dwarf galaxies, allowing the determinatio…
The dependence of dark matter profiles on the stellar to halo mass ratio: a prediction for cusps vs cores
Arianna Di Cintio, Chris B. Brook, Andrea V. Maccio +4
We use 31 simulated galaxies from the MaGICC project to investigate the effects of baryonic feedback on the density profiles of dark matter (DM) haloes. The sample covers a wide ma…
Cold versus Warm Dark Matter simulations of a galaxy group
Noam I. Libeskind, Arianna Di Cintio, Alexander Knebe +5
The differences between cold (CDM) and warm (WDM) dark matter in the formation of a group of galaxies is examined by running two identical simulations where in the WDM case the ini…
Size matters: the non-universal density profile of subhaloes in SPH simulations and implications for the Milky Way's dSphs
Arianna Di Cintio, Alexander Knebe, Noam I. Libeskind +4
We use dark matter only and full hydrodynamical Constrained Local UniversE Simulations (CLUES) of the formation of the Local Group to study the density profile of subhaloes of the…
Applying scale-free mass estimators to the Local Group in Constrained Local Universe Simulations
Arianna Di Cintio, Alexander Knebe, Noam I. Libeskind +3
We use the recently proposed scale-free mass estimators to determine the masses of the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31) galaxy in a dark matter only Constrained Local UniversE Si…
Too small to succeed? Lighting up massive dark matter subhaloes of the Milky Way
Arianna Di Cintio, Alexander Knebe, Noam I. Libeskind +3
Using Constrained Local UniversE Simulations (CLUES) of the formation of the Local Group in a cosmological context we investigate the recently highlighted problem that the majority…
