摘要:

我们探讨的依赖性的径向排列subhalos的主机晕的质量,他们的轨道。由于这种效应可以在包括大质量星系团和星系系统在内的广泛尺度上看到,因此通过覆盖相同质量范围的宇宙学模拟来探索这种现象似乎是很自然的。我们有25个分辨率很好的宿主暗物质晕供我们使用,从10^15 Msun/h到10^12 Msun/h不等,每个都由维里半径内的几百万个粒子组成。我们观察到,subhalos往往比孤立的对象更球形。暗晕球度和三轴度的分布均为高斯分布,峰值s约为0。0.80,T接近。0.56,与宿主质量无关。有趣的是,我们注意到径向排列与主晕质量无关,并且\cos θ的分布(即每个子晕的长轴E_a与子晕在主晕参考系中的径向矢量之间的夹角)可以很好地用一个简单的幂律P(\cos θ)与\cos^4 θ成正比,对于所有主晕具有相同的拟合参数。

英文摘要:

We explore the dependence of the radial alignment of subhalos on the mass of the host halo they orbit in. As the effect is seen on a broad range of scales including massive clusters as well as galactic systems it only appears natural to explore this phenomenon by means of cosmological simulations covering the same range in masses. We have 25 well resolved host dark matter halos at our disposal ranging from 10^15 Msun/h down to 10^12 Msun/h each consisting of order of a couple of million particles within the virial radius. We observe that subhalos tend to be more spherical than isolated objects. Both the distributions of sphericity and triaxiality of subhalos are Gaussian distributed with peak values of s approx. 0.80 and T approx. 0.56, irrespective of host mass. Interestingly we note that the radial alignment is independent of host halo mass and the distribution of \cosθ(i.e. the angle between the major axis E_a of each subhalo and the radius vector of the subhalo in the reference frame of the host) is well fitted by a simple power law P(\cosθ) proportional to \cos^4θwith the same fitting parameters for all host halos.
