Phase Space Models of the Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies
N. C. Amorisco, N. W. Evans
This paper introduces new phase-space models of dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs). The stellar component has an isotropic, lowered isothermal (or King) distribution function. A phy…

Self-consistent nonspherical isothermal halos embedding zero-thickness disks
N. C. Amorisco, G. Bertin
Disk-halo decompositions of galaxy rotation curves are generally performed in a parametric way. We construct self-consistent models of nonspherical isothermal halos embedding a zer…
