Getting Its Kicks: A VLBA Parallax for the Hyperfast Pulsar B1508+55
S. Chatterjee, W. H. T. Vlemmings, W. F. Brisken +7
The highest velocity neutron stars establish stringent constraints on natal kicks, asymmetries in supernova core collapse, and the evolution of close binary systems. Here we presen…
Spin Profile of Galactic Halos and Disk Formation
A. Dekel, J. S. Bullock, C. Porciani +4
We summarize recent developments in the study of the origin of halo spin profiles and preliminary implications on disk formation. The specific angular-momentum distributions within…
Origin and Destiny of Dark Matter Halos: Cosmological Matter Exchange and Metal Enrichment
Tsafrir S. Kolatt, James S. Bullock, Avishai Dekel +4
[Abridged] We analyze the exchange of dark matter between halos, subhalos, and their environments in a high-resolution cosmological N-body simulation of a Lambda CDM cosmology. At…
Interaction rates of dark-matter halos and subhalos
Tsafrir S. Kolatt, James S. Bullock, Yair Sigad +4
[Abridged] The interaction rates of dark-matter halos and subhalos, are computed using high-resolution cosmological N-body simulations of the Lambda-CDM model. Although the number…
Velocity and Mass Functions of Galactic Halos: Evolution and Environmental Dependence
Yair Sigad, Tsafrir S. Kolatt, James S. Bullock +4
We study the distribution functions of mass and circular velocity for dark matter halos in N-body simulations of the CDM cosmology, addressing redshift and environmental depende…
A High Fraction of Mergers in the cluster MS1054-03 at z=0.83
M. Franx, P. G. van Dokkum, D. G. Fabricant +2
We used the Hubble Space Telescope to take a wide field, multicolor image of the high redshift cluster MS1054-03 at z=0.83. The Keck telescope was used to take 200 redshifts in the…
