Critical collapse of collisionless matter—a numerical investigation
In recent years the threshold of black hole formation in spherically symmetric gravitational collapse has been studied for a variety of matter models. In this paper the corresponding issue is investigated for a matter model significantly different from those considered so far in this context. We study the transition from dispersion to black hole formation in the collapse of collisionless matter...
متن کاملModeling Collisionless Matter in General Relativity: A New Numerical Technique
We propose a new numerical technique for following the evolution of a self-gravitating collisionless system in general relativity. Matter is modeled as a scalar field obeying the coupled Klein-Gordon and Einstein equations. A phase space distribution function, constructed using covariant coherent states, obeys the relativistic Vlasov equation provided the de Broglie wavelength for the field is ...
متن کاملAre halos of collisionless cold dark matter collisionless?
We study whether gravitational scattering of halo dark matter particles by subhalos can connect two seemingly independent problems: the abundance of subhalos in dark matter halos and the cuspiness of the halos' inner density profiles. Our numerical experiments indicate that subhalos can cause the collisionless dark matter particles in the centers of main halos to diffuse. Combined with tidal ma...
متن کاملNumerical investigation of a three-dimensional four field model for collisionless magnetic reconnection
In this paper we present the numerical investigation of a three-dimensional four field model for magnetic reconnection in collisionless regimes. The model describes the evolution of the magnetic flux and vorticity together with the perturbations of the parallel magnetic and velocity fields. We explored the different behavior of vorticity and current density structures in low and high β regimes,...
متن کاملCollisional versus Collisionless Dark Matter.
We compare the structure and substructure of dark matter halos in model universes dominated by collisional, strongly self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) and collisionless, weakly interacting dark matter (CDM). While SIDM virialized halos are more nearly spherical than CDM halos, they can be rotationally flattened by as much as 20% in their inner regions. Substructure halos suffer ram-pressure t...
