We have identified over 2000 well resolved cluster halos, and also their associated bound subhalos, from the output of a 1024^3 particle cosmological N-body simulation (of box size 320 h^-1 Mpc and softening length 3.2 h^-1 kpc). This has…

We use N-body simulations to investigate the structure of dark halos in the standard Cold Dark Matter cosmogony. Halos are excised from simulations of cosmologically representative regions and are resimulated individually at high…
If the concordance $\Lambda$CDM model is a true description of the universe, it should also properly predict the properties and structure of dark matter haloes, where galaxies are born. Using N-body simulations with a broad scale of mass…
