早型星系中暗物质晕的潮汐能效应

Tidal energy effects of dark matter halos on early-type galaxies

T. Valentinuzzi, R. Caimmi, M. D'Onofrio

摘要:

相邻物体之间的潮汐相互作用跨越了自然界中整个可接受的长度范围:从原子到星系团,即从微观到宏观。根据目前的宇宙学理论,星系是嵌入在大质量的非重子暗物质(DM)晕,这影响他们的形成和演化。因此,了解星系中暗物质和亮物质之间潮汐相互作用的作用是非常有益的。目前的研究致力于早期型Galerkin(ETGs),特别是在建立是否DM晕与发光重子分量的潮汐相互作用的可能性,可能是在所谓的“倾斜”的基本平面(FP)的起源。将张量维里定理推广到二分量物质分布,意味着计算由于一个选定的子系统的自势能和由另一个子系统引起的潮汐势能。附加假设的等轴条纹密度剖面允许分析表达式的结果,为某些情况下的天体物理学的利益。目前的调查提出的事实,(自+潮汐)的内部组件的势能的配置文件显示最大值和最小值,这表明可能存在的维里化结构的优惠尺度,即一个可行的解释所谓的“倾斜”的FP。据发现,配置相关的最大值不足以,本身,解释FP倾斜,和一些其他的关系必须寻找。

英文摘要:

Tidal interactions between neighboring objects span across the whole admissible range of lengths in nature: from, say, atoms to clusters of galaxies i.e. from micro to macrocosms. According to current cosmological theories, galaxies are embedded within massive non-baryonic dark matter (DM) halos, which affects their formation and evolution. It is therefore highly rewarding to understand the role of tidal interaction between the dark and luminous matter in galaxies. The current investigation is devoted to Early-Type Galaxies (ETGs), looking in particular at the possibility of establishing whether the tidal interaction of the DM halo with the luminous baryonic component may be at the origin of the so-called "tilt" of the Fundamental Plane (FP). The extension of the tensor virial theorem to two-component matter distributions implies the calculation of the self potential energy due to a selected subsystem, and the tidal potential energy induced by the other one. The additional assumption of homeoidally striated density profiles allows analytical expressions of the results for some cases of astrophysical interest. The current investigation raises from the fact that the profile of the (self + tidal) potential energy of the inner component shows maxima and minima, suggesting the possible existence of preferential scales for the virialized structure, i.e. a viable explanation of the so called "tilt" of the FP. It is found that configurations related to the maxima do not suffice, by themselves, to interpret the FP tilt, and some other relation has to be looked for.
