We investigate the internal structure and density profiles of halos of mass $10^{10}-10^{14}~M_\odot$ in the Evolution and Assembly of Galaxies and their Environment (EAGLE) simulations. These follow the formation of galaxies in a…
We extend the concept of galaxy environment from the local galaxy number density to the gravitational potential and its functions like the shear tensor. For this purpose we examine whether or not one can make an accurate estimation of the…
We investigate the connection between collisionless equilibria and the phase-space relation between density $\rho$ and velocity dispersion $\sigma$ found in simulations of dark matter halo formation, $F=\psd \propto r^{-\alpha}$.…
We investigate the gas density, temperature, and pressure profiles in a dark matter halo under the influence of the chameleon force. We solve the hydrostatic equilibrium equation for the gas coupled with the chameleon field in an analytic…
The condensation of gas and stars in the inner regions of dark matter halos leads to a more concentrated dark matter distribution. While this effect is based on simple gravitational physics, the question of its validity in hierarchical…
The velocity anisotropy of particles inside dark matter (DM) haloes is an important physical quantity, which is required for the accurate modelling of mass profiles of galaxies and clusters of galaxies. It is typically measured using the…
The stellar stripping of satellites in cluster haloes is understood to play an important role in the production of intracluster light. Increasingly, cosmological simulations have been utilised to investigate its origin and assembly.…
Self-interacting dark matter has been proposed as a hypothesis to explain the shallow central slopes of the density profiles of dark matter halos in galaxies. In order to be consistent with observational studies at scales of galaxy…
[abridged] We present a detailed comparison of fundamental dark matter halo properties retrieved by a substantial number of different halo finders. These codes span a wide range of techniques including friends-of-friends (FOF),…
Dark matter haloes grow at a rate that depends on the value of the cosmological parameters $\sigma_8$ and $\Omega_{\rm m}$ through the initial power spectrum and the linear growth factor. While halo abundance is routinely used to constrain…
We train graph neural networks on halo catalogues from Gadget N-body simulations to perform field-level likelihood-free inference of cosmological parameters. The catalogues contain $\lesssim$5,000 halos with masses $\gtrsim…
In two recent papers, we developed a powerful technique to link the distribution of galaxies to that of dark matter haloes by considering halo occupation numbers as function of galaxy luminosity and type. In this paper we use these…
The core structure of galaxy clusters is fundamentally important. Even though self-gravitating systems have no stable equilibrium state due to their negative heat capacity, numerical simulations find density profiles which are universal in…
[abridged] In the dark matter (DM) halos embedding galaxies and galaxy systems the `entropy' K = \sigma^2 / \rho^{2/3} (a quantity that combines the radial velocity dispersion \sigma with the density \rho) is found from intensive N-body…
Among the most fundamental properties of a dark matter halo is its density profile. Motivated by the recent proposal by Garc\'ia et al. [R. Garc\'ia et. al., MNRAS 521, 2464 (2023)] to define a dynamical halo as the collection of orbiting…
We show that the two basic assumptions of the model recently proposed by Manrique and coworkers for the universal density profile of cold dark matter (CDM) halos, namely that these objects grow inside out in periods of smooth accretion and…
We show that moderate energy relaxation in the formation of dark matter halos invariably leads to profiles that match those observed in the central regions of galaxies. The density profile of the central region is universal and insensitive…
The circular velocity function (CVF) of galaxies is a fundamental test of the $\Lambda$ Cold Dark Matter (CDM) paradigm as it traces the variation of galaxy number densities with circular velocity ($v_{\rm{circ}}$), a proxy for dynamical…
We study the arc statistics of gravitational lensing generated by dark matter halos in order to probe their density profile. We characterize the halo profile by two parameters, the inner slope of the central cusp $\alpha$, and the median…
The characteristic prediction of the Cold Dark Matter (CDM) model of cosmological structure formation is that the Universe should contain a wealth of small-scale structure -- low-mass dark matter haloes and subhaloes. However, galaxy…
