A novel determination of the local dark matter density
We present a novel study on the problem of constructing mass models for the Milky Way, concentrating on features regarding the dark matter halo component. We have considered a variegated sample of dynamical observables for the Galaxy, including several results which have appeared recently, and studied a 7or 8dimensional parameter space defining the Galaxy model by implementing a Bayesian approa...
متن کاملDetermination of the Local Dark Matter Density in our Galaxy
Context. The rotation curve, the total mass and the gravitational potential of the Galaxy are sensitive measurements of the dark matter halo profile. Aims. In this publication cuspy and cored DM halo profiles are analysed with respect to recent astronomical constraints in order to constrain the shape of the Galactic DM halo and the local DM density. Methods. All Galactic density components (lum...
متن کاملDetermining the Actual Local Density of Dark Matter Particles
Even if dark matter particles are unambiguously discovered in experiments, there is no clear reason to expect that the dark matter problem has been solved. It is very easy to provide examples of dark matter scenarios (e.g. in supersymmetric models) where nearly identical detector signals correspond to extremely different relic densities. Therefore, the density of the particles discovered must b...
متن کاملThe density profile of equilibrium and non - equilibrium dark matter
We study the diversity of the density profiles of dark matter halos based on a large set of high-resolution cosmological simulations of 256 3 particles. The cosmological models include four scale-free models and three representative cold dark matter models. The simulations have good force resolution. In each cosmological model, there are about 400 massive halos which have more than 10 4 particl...
متن کاملNon Parametric Local Density-Based Clustering for Multimodal Overlapping Distributions
In this work, we present a clustering algorithm to find clusters of different sizes, shapes and densities, to deal with overlapping cluster distributions and background noise. The algorithm is divided in two stages. In a first step, local density is estimated at each data point. In a second stage, a hierarchical approach is used by merging clusters according to the introduced cluster distance, ...
