Cored DARKexp systems with finite size: numerical results
Abstract
In the DARKexp framework for collisionless isotropic relaxation of self--gravitating matter, the central object is the differential energy distribution , which takes a maximum--entropy form proportional to , being the depth of the potential well and the standard Lagrange multiplier. Then the first and quite non--trivial problem consists in the determination of an ergodic phase--space distribution which reproduces this . In this work we present a very extensive and accurate numerical solution of such DARKexp problem for systems with cored mass density and finite size. This solution holds throughout the energy interval and is double--valued for a certain interval of . The size of the system represents a unique identifier for each member of this solution family and diverges as approaches a specific value. In this limit, the tail of the mass density dies off as , while at small radii it always starts off linearly in , that is .
