Baryons and dark matter halo distributions in ACDM cosmology
We analyse the dark matter (DM) distribution in a ≈ 10 M ⊙alo extracted from a simulation consistent with the concordance cosmology, where the physics regulating the transformation of gas into stars was allowed to change producing galaxies with different morphologies. Although the DM profiles get mo...

We analyse the dark matter (DM) distribution in a ≈ 10 M ⊙alo extracted from a simulation consistent with the concordance cosmology, where the physics regulating the transformation of gas into stars was allowed to change producing galaxies with different morphologies.
