The Structure of Dark Matter Halos in Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1995
Some dwarf galaxies have HI rotation curves that are completely dominated by a surrounding dark matter (DM) halo (e.g. Carignan & Freeman 1988). These objects represent ideal candidates for an investigation of the density structure of low-mass DM halos as the uncertainties resulting from the subtraction of the visible component are small, even in ...

Dark matter halo properties from galaxy–galaxy lensing★ [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2013
We present results for a galaxy-galaxy lensing study based on imaging data from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey Wide. From a 12 million object multi-colour catalogue for 124 deg^2 of photometric data in the u*g'r'i'z' filters we compute photometric redshifts (with a scatter of σ_{Δz/(1+z)} = 0.033 and an outlier rate of η=2.0 per cent ...

A Tilt in the Dark Matter Halo of the Galaxy

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Abstract Recent observations of the stellar halo have uncovered the debris of an ancient merger, Gaia–Sausage–Enceladus (GSE), estimated to have occurred ≳8 Gyr ago. Follow-up studies have associated GSE with a large-scale tilt in the stellar halo that links two well-known stellar overdensities in diagonally opposing octants of the ...

Flat Galaxies with Dark Matter Halos—Existence and Stability [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Mathematical Physics, 2009
We consider a model for a flat, disk-like galaxy surrounded by a halo of dark matter, namely a Vlasov-Poisson type system with two particle species, the stars which are restricted to the galactic plane and the dark matter particles. These constituents interact only through the gravitational potential which stars and dark matter create collectively ...

The rise and fall of galaxy activity in dark matter haloes [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2009
We use a SDSS galaxy group catalogue to study the dependence of galaxy activity on stellar mass, halo mass, and group hierarchy (centrals vs. satellites). We split our galaxy sample in star-forming galaxies, galaxies with optical AGN activity and radio sources.

Cosmic Reionization on Computers: Baryonic Effects on Halo Concentrations during the Epoch of Reionization

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Baryons both increase halo concentration through adiabatic contraction and expel mass through feedback processes. However, it is not well understood how the radiation fields prevalent during the epoch of reionization affect the evolution of concentration

Implications for dark matter direct detection in the presence of LIGO-motivated primordial black holes

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2020
We discuss formation of dark matter (DM) mini-halos around primordial black holes (PBHs) and its implication on DM direct detection experiments, including axion searches.

GRAVISCALAR DARK MATTER AND SMOOTH GALAXY HALOS [PDF]

open access: yesModern Physics Letters A, 2009
In the framework of the unimodular metagravity, with the scalar graviton/graviscalar dark matter, a regular anomalous one-parameter solution to the static spherically symmetric metagravity equations in empty space is found. The solution presents a smooth graviscalar halo, with a finite central density profile, qualitatively reproducing the ...

The 6dF Galaxy Survey: Dependence of halo occupation on stellar mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper we study the stellar-mass dependence of galaxy clustering in the 6dF Galaxy Survey. The near-infrared selection of 6dFGS allows more reliable stellar mass estimates compared to optical bands used in other galaxy surveys.
