We examine the proposal that a model of the large-scale matter distribution consisting of randomly placed haloes with power-law profile, as opposed to a fractal model, can account for the observed power-law galaxy-galaxy correlations. We…
We study the dynamical properties of spherical galaxies with surface luminosity profile described by the R^{1/m}-law, in which a variable degree of orbital anisotropy is allowed. The parameter m for the present models covers the range…

(Abridged) We describe a new iterative approach for the realization of equilibrium N-body systems for given density distributions. Our method uses elements of Schwarzschild's technique and of the made-to-measure method, but is based on a…
