[1204.6608] Modified Gravity Spins Up Galactic Halos - 0 views

shared by Kaiki Inoue on 03 May 12 - No Cached
  •  
    The authors numerically showed that angular momentum of isolated galactic halos with mass less than 10^11 solar mass is systematically larger in the f(R) gravity model since they are less affected by shielding via chameleon mechanism.

Subhaloes in Self-Interacting Galactic Dark Matter Haloes - 1 views

  •  
    Using N-body simulation, the authors showed that velocity-dependent self-interacting dark matter gives the inner circular velocity profiles of the most massive subhalos that are compatible with the data of the brightest Milky Way dSphs.

Gravitational detection of a low-mass dark satellite galaxy at cosmological distance - 4 views

  •  
    The authors claim a detection of a missing dark satellite in a galaxy-galaxy strong lens system B1938+666. The claimed perturber is located at the brightest region in the lensed image.

Measuring our Peculiar Velocity by "Pre-deboosting" the CMB - 1 views

  •  
    Our peculiar velocity with respect to the CMB rest frame can be measured through off-diagonal correlations in harmonic expansion coefficients due to aberration. The author shows that a new technique called "pre-deboosting" will work for detecting such correlations up to l~10000. If the measured residual peculiar velocity is different from the expected value, it would be a hint of some anomalies on superhorizon scales.

Nonlinear Evolution of Cosmological Structures in Warm Dark Matter Models - 3 views

  •  
    From N-body simulation, the authors find that concentration-mass relation displays a turnover for group scale dark matter haloes, for the case of WDM particles with masses of the order ~0.25 keV. This may be interpreted as a hint for top-down structure formation on small scales. Is there any reionization mechanism in this scenario?
  •  
    1)Because the size of the simulated boxes were ten times smaller in previous studies. 2)Weak lensing at scale below ~1arcsec could work. Their results might be helpful for estimating non-linear power spectrum based on a certain halo model.
