I dark matter limit
Recent objections (Phys.Lett. B 637, 156.) to the published Zeplin I limit (Astropart. Phys 23, 444) are shown to arise from misunderstandings of the calibration data and procedure, and a misreading of the data in one of the referenced papers.
متن کاملA Universal Density Profile for Dark and Luminous Matter?
We explore similarities in the luminosity distribution of early type galaxies and the mass profiles of ΛCDM halos. The spatial structure of these systems may be accurately described by a simple law where the logarithmic slope of the projected density is a power law of radius; the Sérsic law. We show that this law provides a significantly better fit than a three-parameter generalization of the N...
متن کاملA Dark Matter Candidate from an Extra (Non-Universal) Dimension
We show that a recently constructed five–dimensional (5D) model with gauge– Higgs unification and explicit Lorentz symmetry breaking in the bulk, provides a natural dark matter candidate. This is the lightest Kaluza–Klein particle odd under a certain discrete Z2 symmetry, which has been introduced to improve the naturalness of the model, and resembles KK–parity but is less constraining. The dar...
متن کاملArcs from a Universal Dark-Matter Halo Profile
Navarro, Frenk, & White have recently found numerically that the density profile of dark-matter halos can be described by a universal two-parameter function over a broad range of halo masses. The profile is singular, approaching the halo center with ρ ∝ r−1. It had been argued previously that radially distorted, gravitationally lensed images of background sources in galaxy clusters, so-called r...
متن کاملDark Matter Halos: Velocity Anisotropy – Density Slope Relation
Dark matter (DM) halos formed in CDM cosmologies seem to be characterized by a power law phasespace density profile. The density of the DM halos is often fitted by the NFW profile but a better fit is provided by the Sersic fitting formula. These relations are empirically derived from cosmological simulations of structure formation but have not yet been explained on a first principle basis. Here...
