Fine-tuning in the rotation curves of spirals and the uniqueness of their mass modelling
Chiara Tonini, Paolo Salucci
We construct a generic mass model of a disk galaxy by combining the usual two mass components, an exponential thin stellar disk and a dark halo for which we alternatively assume on…
From First Galaxies to QSOs: feeding the baby monsters
L. Danese, F. Shankar, G. L. Granato +5
We present a physical model for the coevolution of massive spheroidal galaxies and active nuclei at their centers. Supernova heating is increasingly effective in slowing down the s…
Super-massive Black Hole Demography: the Match between the Local and Accreted Mass Functions
F. Shankar, P. Salucci, G. L. Granato +2
We have performed a detailed analysis of the local super-massive black-hole (SMBH) mass function based on both kinematic and photometric data and derived an accurate analytical fit…
The cored distribution of dark matter in spiral galaxies
G. Gentile, P. Salucci, U. Klein +2
We present the HI data for 5 spiral galaxies that, along with their Halpha rotation curves, are used to derive the distribution of dark matter within these objects. A new method fo…
Cores of Dark Matter Halos Correlate with Disk Scale Lengths
F. Donato, G. Gentile, P. Salucci
We investigate in detail the mass distribution obtained by means of high resolution rotation curves of 25 galaxies of different morphological types. The dark matter contribution to…
