The Role of the Radial Orbit Instability in Dark Matter Halo Formation and Structure
Jillian M. Bellovary, Julianne J. Dalcanton, Arif Babul +5
For a decade, N-body simulations have revealed a nearly universal dark matter density profile, which appears to be robust to changes in the overall density of the universe and the…
Semi-analytical dark matter halos and the Jeans equation
Crystal G. Austin, Liliya L. R. Williams, Eric I. Barnes +2
Although N-body studies of dark matter halos show that the density profiles, rho(r), are not simple power-laws, the quantity rho/sigma^3, where sigma(r) is the velocity dispersion,…
The phase-space density distribution of dark matter halos
Liliya L. R. Williams, Crystal Austin, Eric Barnes +2
High resolution N-body simulations have all but converged on a common empirical form for the shape of the density profiles of halos, but the full understanding of the underlying ph…
