摘要:

我们目前的形状测量银河系大小的暗物质晕在红移$z=0$在一套30变焦模拟御夫座项目。我们比较结果在全磁流体力学对暗物质只有模拟和重子在使暗物质晕圆在所有半径相比,他们的暗物质只有同行的强烈影响。在$\lesssim 30$ kpc的距离上,更圆的暗物质分布与大质量恒星盘的扩展和低核心气体密度有关。我们测量的光环和光盘的形状在不同的半径之间的对齐,并找到一个高度的对齐在所有半径的星系。在某些情况下,这种排列会随着半径的变化而显著变化,这意味着光环的形状会扭曲;这种效应与最近形成的凸起有关,并且在仅模拟暗物质的情况下几乎不存在。在对观测约束的比较中,我们发现,在我们的样本中的晕的$20\%$是一致的观测结果来自1995年流,有利于一个几乎球形的形状。包括重子是实现这一水平的协议所必需的元素。相比之下,没有一个模拟(无论是暗物质还是重子)符合人马座流的限制,有利于扁圆的暗物质晕。

英文摘要:

We present shape measurements of Milky Way-sized dark matter halos at redshift $z=0$ in a suite of 30 zoom simulations from the Auriga project. We compare the results in full magnetohydrodynamics against dark matter only simulations and find a strong influence of baryons in making dark matter haloes rounder at all radii compared to their dark matter only counterparts. At distances $\lesssim 30$ kpc, rounder dark matter distributions correlate with extended massive stellar discs and low core gas densities. We measure the alignment between the halo and the disc shapes at different radii and find a high degree of alignment at all radii for most of the galaxies. In some cases the alignment significantly changes as a function of radius implying that the halo shape twists; this effect correlates with recently formed bulges and is almost absent in the dark matter only simulations. In a comparison against observational constraints we find that $20\%$ of halos in our sample are consistent with observational results derived from the Pal 5 stream that favours an almost spherical shape. Including baryons is a required element to achieve this level of agreement. In contrast, none of the simulations (neither dark matter only nor with baryons) match the constraints derived from the Sagittarius stream that favour an oblate dark matter halo.
