Dependence of the Inner DM Profile on the Halo Mass
Massimo Ricotti
I compare the density profile of dark matter (DM) halos in cold dark matter (CDM) N-body simulations with 1 Mpc, 32 Mpc, 256 Mpc and 1024 Mpc box sizes. In dimensionless units the…
Dwarf Sphs/First-galaxies connection
Massimo Ricotti
I analyze the properties of the first galaxies in cosmological simulations with radiative feedback. Preliminary results indicate similarities with the observed properties of the bu…
Did Globular Clusters Reionize the Universe?
Massimo Ricotti
A problem still unsolved in cosmology is the identification of the sources of radiation able to reionize HI in the intergalactic medium (IGM) by z~6. Theoretical works and observat…
What regulates the velocity distribution of interstellar clouds?
Massimo Ricotti, Andrea Ferrara
Kinetic energy stored in ISM bulk/turbulent motions is a crucial ingredient to properly describe most properties of observed galaxies. By using Monte Carlo simulations, we investig…
