增强湮灭增强:潮汐对暗物质暗晕的影响和一致的光度模拟

Boosting the annihilation boost: Tidal effects on dark matter subhalos and consistent luminosity modeling

Richard Bartels, Shin'ichiro Ando

摘要:

在冷暗物质范例中,结构是分层形成的,这意味着大的结构包含较小的子结构。这些暗晕将增强暗物质湮灭的特征,如伽马射线。在文献中,典型的估计,这个助推因子假设场晕的浓度-质量关系,以计算subhalos的光度。然而,由于潜晕是通过潮汐剥离和动力摩擦在其宿主松散质量的重力位中吸积的,因此它们具有非常特征的密度分布,与相同质量的场晕不同。在这项工作中,我们量化的潮汐剥离的助推因子的影响,通过开发一个半分析模型,结合质量吸积的历史,主机和subhalos以及subhalo吸积率。我们发现,当subhalo光度处理一致,提高因子增加了一个因素2-5,相比,典型的计算假设场晕浓度。这适用于从次星系到星系团质量的宿主晕,并且独立于次晕质量函数或特定的浓度-质量关系。这些结果对于在河外伽马射线天空中进行间接暗物质搜索特别相关。

英文摘要:

In the cold dark matter paradigm, structures form hierarchically, implying that large structures contain smaller substructures. These subhalos will enhance signatures of dark matter annihilation such as gamma rays. In the literature, typical estimates of this boost factor assume a concentration-mass relation for field halos, to calculate the luminosity of subhalos. However, since subhalos accreted in the gravitational potential of their host loose mass through tidal stripping and dynamical friction, they have a quite characteristic density profile, different from that of the field halos of the same mass. In this work, we quantify the effect of tidal stripping on the boost factor, by developing a semi-analytic model that combines mass-accretion history of both the host and subhalos as well as subhalo accretion rates. We find that when subhalo luminosities are treated consistently, the boost factor increases by a factor 2-5, compared to the typical calculation assuming a field-halo concentration. This holds for host halos ranging from sub-galaxy to cluster masses and is independent of the subhalo mass function or specific concentration-mass relation. The results are particularly relevant for indirect dark matter searches in the extragalactic gamma-ray sky.
