The density and pseudo-phase-space density profiles of cold dark matter haloes

The density and pseudo-phase-space density profiles of cold dark matter haloes

Cosmological N-body simulations indicate that the spherically-averaged density profiles of cold dark matter halos are accurately described by Einasto profiles, where the logarithmic slope is a power-law of adjustable exponent, \gamma =dln\rho /dlnr ~ r^\alpha $. The pseudo-phase-space density (PPSD) profiles of CDM halos also show remarkable regularity, and are …
