On the Dwarf Galaxy Rotation Curve Diversity Problem [PDF]

open access: goldGalaxies, 2018
In this paper, we show how baryonic physics can solve the problem of the striking diversity in dwarf galaxy rotation curves shapes. To this aim, we compare the distribution of galaxies of the SPARC sample, in the plane V2kpc-VRlast (V2kpc being the ...

Inflation and the dwarf galaxy problem [PDF]

open access: greenPhysical Review D, 2000
Cosmological N-body simulations with scale-invariant initial perturbations show too many virialized objects of dwarf-galaxy masses in a typical galactic halo in contradiction to observation and stability of galactic discs. We present a model of double hybrid inflation which predicts density fluctuations with a small-scale cutoff to account for the ...

A possible dwarf galaxy satellite-of-satellite problem in ΛCDM [PDF]

open access: greenAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
Dark matter clusters on all scales, and it is therefore expected that even substructure should host its own substructure. Using the Extragalactic Distance Database, we searched for dwarf-galaxy satellites of dwarf galaxies, that is, satellite-of-satellite galaxies, corresponding to these substructures of substructure. From investigation of Hubble Space

The Cusp–Core Problem in Gas-Poor Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies [PDF]

open access: goldGalaxies, 2021
This review deals with the inconsistency of inner dark matter density profiles in dwarf galaxies, known as the cusp–core problem. In particular, we aim to focus on gas-poor dwarf galaxies. One of the most promising solutions to this cold dark matter small-scale issue is the stellar feedback, but it seems to be only designed for gas-rich dwarfs. However,

Missing Dwarf Problem in Galaxy Clusters [PDF]

open access: bronzePublications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2007
Abstract We investigated the formation and evolution of CDM subhalos in galaxy-sized and cluster-sized halos by means of $N$-body simulations. Our aim was to make clear what the “dwarf galaxy problem” is. It has been argued that the number of subhalos in simulated galaxy-sized halos is too large compared with the observed number of ...

Formation of dwarf galaxies and small-scale problems of CDM [PDF]

open access: bronzeProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006
AbstractThe concordance cosmological model based on cold dark matter makes definitive predictions for the growth of galaxies in the Universe, which are being actively studied using numerical simulations. These predictions appear to contradict the observations of dwarf galaxies.

Inner Halo Shapes of Dwarf Galaxies: Resolving the Cusp/Core Problem [PDF]

open access: bronzeSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 2004
We derive inner dark matter halo density profile slopes for a sample of 200 dwarf galaxies by inverting rotation curves obtained from high-quality, long-slit optical spectra. Using simulations to assess the impact of long-slit observing and data processing errors on our measurements, we conclude that our observations are consistent with the cuspy halos
