Mass distribution of spiral galaxies from characteristics of spiral structure: Constraints on galaxy formation models

Marc S. Seigar, Aaron J. Barth, James Bullock +1

Recently, it has been shown that a correlation exists between the rate of shear and the spiral arm pitch angle in disk galaxies. The rate of shear depends upon the shape of the rot…

Cosmology and the Stellar Halo

James S. Bullock, Kathryn V. Johnston

If the favored hierarchical cosmological model is correct, then the Milky Way system should have accreted and subsequently tidally destroyed ~100 low-mass galaxies in the past ~12…

Probing Galaxy Formation with High Energy Gamma-Rays

Joel R. Primack

I discuss how measurements of the absorption of -rays from GeV to TeV energies via pair production on the extragalactic background light (EBL) can probe important issues in gala…

Concentrations and Assembly Histories of Dark Matter Halos

Risa H. Wechsler, James S. Bullock, J. R. Primack +2

We study the relation between the density profiles of dark matter halos and their mass assembly histories, using a statistical sample of halos in a high-resolution N-body simulatio…

Tilted CDM versus WDM in the Subgalactic Scuffle

James S. Bullock

Although the currently favored cold dark matter plus cosmological constant model (LCDM) has proven to be remarkably successful on large scales, on subgalactic scales it faces some…

Dark Matter Properties and Halo Central Densities

S. M. Khairul Alam, James S. Bullock, David H. Weinberg

Using an analytic model calibrated against numerical simulations, we calculate the central densities of dark matter halos in a ``conventional'' cold dark matter model with a cosmol…
