We investigate the structure of the dark matter halo formed in the cold dark matter scenario using $N$-body simulations. We simulated 12 halos with the mass of $6.6\times 10^{11}M_{\odot}$ to $8.0\times 10^{14}M_{\odot}$. In almost all…
Galaxy formation and evolution models, such as semi-analytic models, are powerful theoretical tools for predicting how galaxies evolve across cosmic time. These models follow the evolution of galaxies based on the halo assembly histories…
In the past decade, surveys of the stellar component of the Galaxy have revealed a number of streams from tidally disrupted dwarf galaxies and globular clusters. Simulations of hierarchical structure formation in LCDM cosmologies predict…
The orbital parameters of dark matter (DM) subhaloes play an essential role in determining their mass-loss rates and overall spatial distribution within a host halo. Haloes in cosmological simulations grow by a combination of relatively…
We use cosmological N-body simulations from the Aquarius Project to study the tidal effects of a dark matter halo on the shape and orientation of its substructure. Although tides are often assumed to enhance asphericity and to stretch…
We construct a realistic model for the dark halo substructures, and derive analytically their spatial, mass, and velocity distributions. Basically, our model is a modification of the Press-Schechter theory to account for the dominant…
(Abridged) We present a semi-analytic model for Cold Dark Matter halo substructure that can be used as a framework for studying galaxy formation and an ingredient in halo models of galaxy clustering. We perform a comprehensive comparison of…
We investigate the co-evolution of the stellar and dark matter mass of satellite galaxies using the COLIBRE cosmological hydrodynamical simulations with subhaloes resolved by the history-based HBT-HERONS subhalo finder. We identify a…
We investigate the intrinsic alignments of dark halo substructures with their host halo major-axis orientations both analytically and numerically. Analytically, we derive the probability density distribution of the angles between the minor…
We study the behaviour of multiple radiative cooling algorithms implemented in seven Semi-Analytic Models (SAMs) of galaxy formation, including a new model we propose in this paper. We use versions of the models without feedback and apply…
We identify shell-like tidal structures in flattened haloes that appear stream-like under different projections. This projection dependence demonstrates how changes in the host halo directly impact the formation and classification of tidal…
Dissipative dark matter self-interactions can affect halo evolution and change its structure. We perform a series of controlled N-body simulations to study impacts of the dissipative interactions on halo properties. The interplay between…
Tidal stripping is a key feature of the evolution of dark matter (DM) halos, and has major implications for the population of low-mass galaxies. In the case of ultralight DM, tidal stripping proceeds not only classically, at the tidal…
According to the hierarchical formation paradigm, galaxies form through mergers of smaller entities and massive black holes (MBHs), if lurking at their centers, migrate to the nucleus of the newly formed galaxy, where they form binary…
A special purpose N-body simulation has been built to understand the tidal heating of the smallest dark matter substructures ($10^{-6}\msun$ and 0.01pc) from the grainy potential of the Milky Way due to individual stars in the disk and the…
We simulate the tidal disruption of a collisionless N-body globular star cluster in a total of 300 different orbits selected to have galactocentric radii between 10 and 30 kpc in four dark matter halos: (a) a spherical halo with no…
We study the gravothermal evolution of dark matter halos in the presence of dissipative dark matter self-interactions. Dissipative interactions are present in many particle-physics realizations of the dark-sector paradigm and can…

The properties of satellite halos provide a promising probe for dark matter (DM) physics. Observations have motivated current efforts to explain surprisingly compact DM halos. If DM is not collisionless, but has strong self-interactions,…
Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) models feature short-range interactions between dark matter (DM) particles that lead to larger diversity in the inner parts of galactic rotation curves and potentially unique gravitational lensing…
