We perform a series of high-resolution N-body simulations designed to examine the density profiles of dark matter halos. From 12 simulated halos ranging the mass of $2\times10^{12}\sim 5\times10^{14} h^{-1}{\rm M_\odot}$ (represented by…
We calculate the density profiles of virialized halos in the case of structure evolving hierarchically from a scale-free Gaussian delta-field having a power spectrum $P(k)\propto k^n$ in a Omega=1 Universe; we suppose that the initial…
We use the Millennium Simulation series to study the relation between the accretion history (MAH) and mass profile of cold dark matter halos. We find that the mean density within the scale radius, r_{-2} (where the halo density profile has…
In this paper we calculate the density profiles of virialized halos both in the case of structure evolving hierarchically from a scale-free Gaussian delta-field having a power spectrum P(k)=A k^n in a Omega=1 Universe and in the case of the…
The density profiles of dark matter haloes are commonly described by fitting functions such as the NFW or Einasto models, but these approximations break down in the transition region where halos become dominated by newly accreting matter.…
Cosmological N-body simulations indicate that the spherically-averaged density profiles of cold dark matter halos are accurately described by Einasto profiles, where the logarithmic slope is a power-law of adjustable exponent, \gamma…
In the previous paper of this series, we proposed a new function to fit halo density profiles out to large radii. This truncated Einasto profile models the inner, orbiting matter as $\rho_{\rm orb} \propto \exp \left[-2/\alpha\ (r / r_{\rm…
Several recent studies suggest a correlation between dark matter halo mass and the shape of the density profile. We re-analyze simulations from Ricotti (2003) in which such a correlation was proposed. We use a standard analysis of the halo…
We explore the relation between the structure and mass accretion histories of dark matter halos using a suite of cosmological simulations. We confirm that the formation time, defined as the time when the virial mass of the main progenitor…
I use $N$-body simulations to investigate the morphology and the dynamical evolution and properties of dark matter halos in clusters of galaxies. My sample consists of nine massive halos, coming from an Einstein-de Sitter universe with…
We report a series of high-resolution N-body simulations designed to examine the internal physical properties of dark matter halos. A total of fifteen halos, each represented by $\sim 1$ million particles within the virial radius, have been…
Dark-matter halos grown in cosmological simulations appear to have central NFW-like density cusps with mean values of $d\log\rho/d\log r \approx -1$, and some dispersion, which is generally parametrized by the varying index $\alpha$ in the…
Cold dark matter haloes consist of a relatively smooth dark matter component as well as a system of bound subhaloes. It is the prevailing practice to include all halo mass, including mass in subhaloes, in studies of halo density profiles.…
We argue that a universal density profile for dark matter halos arises as a natural consequence of hierarchical structure formation. It is a fixed point in the process of repeated mergers. We present analytic and numerical arguments for the…
Dark-matter halos show a universal density profile with a scaling such that less massive systems are typically denser. This mass-density relation is well described by a proportionality between the characteristic density of halos and the…
Dark matter simulations require statistical techniques to properly identify and classify their halos and structures. Nonparametric solutions provide catalogs of these structures but lack the additional learning of a model-based algorithm…
We develop a model for the growth of dark matter halos and use it to study their evolved density profiles. In this model, halos are spherical and form by quiescent accretion of matter in clumps, called satellites. The halo mass as a…
High resolution cosmological N-body simulations show that the density profiles of dark matter halos in hierarchical cosmogonies are universal, with low mass halos typically denser than more massive ones. This mass-density correlation is…
We investigate the formation of virialized halos due to the gravitational collapse of collisionless matter using high-resolution N-body simulations. A variety of formation scenarios are studied, ranging from hierarchical clustering to…
Halos of similar mass and redshift exhibit a large degree of variability in their differential properties, such as dark matter, hot gas, and stellar mass density profiles. This variability is an indicator of diversity in the formation…
