Dark matter in ALFALFA galaxies

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Aims. This paper aims to investigate the galaxy-halo connection using a large sample of individual galaxies with H  I -integrated spectra. We determined their dark matter content by applying a dynamical method based on H  I line ...

Probing the Dark Matter Halos of External Galaxies with Stellar Streams

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Stellar streams have proven to be powerful tools for measuring the Milky Way’s gravitational potential and hence its dark matter (DM) halo. In the coming years, the Vera Rubin Observatory, Euclid, ARRAKIHS, and the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will ...

Halo Substructure Boosts to the Signatures of Dark Matter Annihilation

open access: yesGalaxies, 2019
The presence of dark matter substructure will boost the signatures of dark matter annihilation. We review recent progress on estimates of this subhalo boost factor—a ratio of the luminosity from annihilation in the subhalos to that originating the ...

Tidal Suppression of Fuzzy Dark Matter Heating in Milky Way Satellite Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Many previous studies have imposed stringent constraints on the particle mass of fuzzy dark matter (FDM) by analyzing observations of Galactic satellite galaxies, which show no significant evidence of the heating effect predicted by FDM.

Analysis of Galaxies at the Extremes: Failed Galaxy Progenitors in the MAGNETICUM Simulations

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics
There is increasing observational evidence for a “failed galaxy” formation pathway for ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) at low redshift however they currently lack simulated counterparts.

Globular Cluster Distributions as a Dynamical Probe of Dark Matter

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Globular clusters (GCs) act as massive probe particles traversing the dark matter halos of their host galaxies. Gravitational dynamical friction due to halo particles causes GC orbits to contract over time, providing a beyond-mean field test of the cold ...

The spin and orientation of dark matter halos within cosmic filaments

open access: yes, 2009
Clusters, filaments, sheets, and voids are the building blocks of the cosmic web. Forming dark matter halos respond to these different large-scale environments, and this in turn affects the properties of galaxies hosted by the halos.

Dark galactic halos without dark matter

open access: yes, 2015
Using standard Einstein theory, baryonic mass cannot account for observed galactic rotation velocities and gravitational lensing, attributed to galactic dark-matter halos.

Leaving No Branches Behind: Predicting Baryonic Properties of Galaxies from Merger Trees

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Galaxies play a key role in our endeavor to understand how structure formation proceeds in the Universe. For any precision study of cosmology or galaxy formation, there is a strong demand for huge sets of realistic mock galaxy catalogs, spanning ...

The distribution of dark matter in galaxies: Constant-density dark halos envelop the stellar disks

open access: yes, 2001
In this paper we review the main and the most recent evidence for the presence of a core radius in the distribution of the dark matter around spiral galaxies.
