男性化时暗物质晕的浓度是普遍的吗?

Is the Concentration of Dark Matter Halos at Virialization Universal ?

Massimo Ricotti, Andrew Pontzen, Matteo Viel

摘要:

最近的几项研究表明,暗物质晕质量和密度分布的形状之间存在相关性。我们重新分析了Ricotti(2003)提出的这种相关性的模拟。我们使用的晕密度分布的标准分析,并比较旧的模拟与新的Gadget 2,包括更高的分辨率运行。我们证实Ricotti的结果,在维里化,在维里半径的5%-10%的中心对数斜率α与晕质量和晕浓度是一个普适常数。我们的研究结果与大多数已发表的论文并不矛盾:当使用分裂幂律拟合密度分布时,由于α浓度简并性,拟合与具有α =1或1.5的通用形状的晕相一致,并且浓度取决于质量,与其他地方发表的结果一致。最近,几个研究小组没有发现内晕轮廓收敛于常幂律的证据。在这封信中使用的分裂幂律参数化的选择是出于需要比较我们的结果与以前的,是正式有效的,因为我们不能解决的拟合函数的斜率达到其渐近常数值的区域。利用非参数化技术,我们还表明,矮星系在z ~ 10处的密度剖面在维里半径的5%以内具有小于0.5的对数斜率。

英文摘要:

Several recent studies suggest a correlation between dark matter halo mass and the shape of the density profile. We re-analyze simulations from Ricotti (2003) in which such a correlation was proposed. We use a standard analysis of the halo density profiles and compare the old simulations to new ones performed with Gadget2, including higher resolution runs. We confirm Ricotti's result that, at virialization, the central log slopes alpha, at 5%-10% of the virial radius are correlated with the halo mass and that the halo concentration is a universal constant. Our results do not contradict the majority of published papers: when using a split power law to fit the density profiles, due to the alpha-concentration degeneracy, the fits are consistent with halos having a universal shape with alpha=1 or 1.5 and concentrations that depend on the mass, in agreement with results published elsewhere. Recently, several groups have found no evidence for convergence of the inner halo profile to a constant power law. The choice of a split power law parameterization used in this letter is motivated by the need to compare our results to previous ones and is formally valid because we are not able to resolve regions where the slope of the fitting function reaches its asymptotic constant value. Using a non-parameterized technique, we also show that the density profiles of dwarf galaxies at z ~ 10 have a log slope shallower than 0.5 within 5% of the virial radius.
