The Dark Halo - Spheroid Conspiracy and the Origin of Elliptical Galaxies

open access: yes, 2013
Dynamical modeling and strong lensing data indicate that the total density profiles of early-type galaxies are close to isothermal, i.e., rho_tot ~ r^gamma with gamma approx -2. To understand the origin of this universal slope we study a set of simulated
