The Role of Dark Matter in Driving Disk Perturbations: Application to LMC-SMC Like Galaxy Interactions
Himansh Rathore, Hayden R. Foote, Gurtina Besla +6
Dark-matter (DM) models predict that satellite galaxies distort their host's DM halo. As such, both the satellite and the distorted halo can perturb the host's stellar disk. The LM…
Quantifying the Milky Way, LMC and their interaction using all-sky kinematics of outer halo stars
Richard A. N. Brooks, Jason L. Sanders, Adam M. Dillamore +4
The recent pericentric passage of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) has dislodged the Milky Way's (MW) centre of mass, inducing dynamical disequilibrium, the reflex motion, in the k…
Mapping the Distorted Dark Matter Distribution of the LMC-SMC System Prior to Milky Way Infall with Basis Function Expansions
Hayden R. Foote, Himansh Rathore, Gurtina Besla +6
The SMC orbits within the LMC's dark matter (DM) halo in a 1:10 mass-ratio encounter. The LMC:Milky Way (MW) interaction is also 1:10, and is expected to perturb the MW…
