Dark-matter distributions around massive black holes: A general relativistic analysis

Dark-matter distributions around massive black holes: A general relativistic analysis

The cold dark matter at the center of a galaxy will be redistributed by the presence of a massive black hole. The redistribution may be determined using an approach pioneered by Gondolo and Silk: begin with a model distribution function for the dark matter, and ``grow'' the black hole adiabatically, …
