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 truncation and drag, which are more rapid and severe than their gravitational counterparts tidal stripping and dynamical friction. Lensing constraints on the size of galactic halos in clusters are a factor of 2 smaller than predicted by gravitational stripping, and the recent detection of tidal streams of stars escaping from the satellite galaxy Carina suggests that its tidal radius is close to its optical radius of a few hundred parsecs-an order of magnitude smaller than predicted by CDM models but consistent with SIDM models. The orbits of SIDM satellites suffer significant velocity bias, sigmaSIDM&solm0;sigmaCDM=0.85, and are more circular than CDM satellites, betaSIDM approximately 0.5, in agreement with the inferred orbits of the Galaxy's satellites. In the limit of a short mean free path, SIDM halos have singular isothermal density profiles; thus, in its simplest incarnation SIDM, is inconsistent with galactic rotation curves. 相似文献

The problems of flat directions and supersymmetry breaking are fundamental problems that are still unsolved in the comparison
of string theory with low-energy physics. A possible nonperturbative dilaton potential may play an important role in their
solution. In the present paper we consider D-dimensional, low-energy, string cosmological models with a di/aton potential.
Exact solutions are written for several simple potentials. The picture of cosmological evolution of a gravi-dilaton model
is investigated by methods of the qualitative theory of dynamical systems for different cases of the behavior of the potential
in the domain of strong coupling. Features of models having potentials that take negative values in certain ranges of values
of the dilaton field are discussed. A specific mechanism of generation of a nonperturbative potential, based on gaugino condensation
in the hidden sector of the gauge group, is considered.

There can exist a hidden sector of the Universe in the form of parallel “mirror” world which has the same particle physics as the observable world and interacts with the latter only gravitationally. Big Bang nucleosynthesis bounds demand that the mirror sector should have a smaller temperature than the ordinary one. This implies that the mirror matter could play a role of dark matter, and in addition its chemical content should be dominated by helium. Here we study the evolutionary and structural properties of the mirror stars which essentially are similar to that of the ordinary stars but with higher helium contents. Being invisible in terms of photons, they could be observed only as MACHOs in the microlensing experiments. Using a numerical code, we compute evolution of stars with large helium abundances (Y = 0.30–0.80) and a wide range of masses, from 0.5 to 10 M. We found that helium dominated mirror star should have much faster evolutionary time (up to a factor 30) than the ordinary star with the same mass. In addition, we show the diagrams of luminosities, effective temperatures, central temperatures and densities, and compute the masses of the He-core at ignition and the minimum mass for carbon ignition, for different chemical compositions. The general conclusion is that mirror stars evolve faster as compared to ordinary ones, and explode earlier as type II supernovae, thus enriching the galactic halo of processed mirror gas with higher metallicity, with implications for MACHO observations and galaxy evolution. 相似文献

In this work, we consider the framework of non-linear electrodynamics in Bianchi type I universe model composed of matter and electromagnetic field. We deal with electric and magnetic universe separately. In this scenario, we calculate the electric and magnetic fields and their corresponding matter densities using two particular types of interaction terms. We also check the validity of generalized second law of thermodynamics in both universe models enclosed by apparent horizon. It turns out that this law holds on the apparent horizon for a particular range depending upon the parameters. Finally, we discuss the deceleration and statefinder parameters to check the viability of these models. 相似文献

Pion condensates can help to explain a variety of physical properties owned by pulsars if they are present in their interiors. It has been noted that they offer, for example, an attractive alternative to understand glitches by improving former core-quake models. We discuss this scenario and show in this work some constraints on the properties of this type of matter arise from X-ray observations of the Vela pulsar performed by theEinstein Observatory. Further information on this subject will be soon obtained from improved facilities and we expect them to give further constraints to the viability of those models. 相似文献

Investigations of string cosmology with a nonperturbative dilaton potential, begun in the first part of this work, are continued.
The picture of cosmological evolution of an isotropic, gravi-dilaton model for different cases of the behavior of the potential
in the region of strong coupling is analyzed by methods of the qualitative theory of dynamical systems. Features of models
with potentials that take negative values in certain ranges of values of the dilaton field are discussed. A specific mechanism
of generation of the nonperturbative potential, based on gaugino condensation in a hidden sector of the gauge group, is considered.

The expected proton and neutrino fluxes from decays of massive metastable relic particles are calculated using the HERWIG QCD event generator. The predicted proton spectrum can account for the observed flux of extremely high energy cosmic rays beyond the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuzmin cutoff, for a decaying particle mass of
(1012) GeV. The lifetime required is of
(1020) yr if such particles constitute all of the dark matter (with a proportionally shorter lifetime for a smaller contribution). Such values are plausible if the metastable particles are hadron-like bound states from the hidden sector of supersymmetry breaking which decay through nonrenormalizable interactions. The expected ratio of the proton to neutrino flux is given as a diagonistic of the decaying particle model for the forthcoming Pierre Auger Project. 相似文献

We study gravitational lensing statistics, matter power spectra and the angular power spectra of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation in x-matter models. We adopt an equation of state of x-matter which can express a wide range of matter from pressureless dust to the cosmological constant. A new ingredient in this model is the sound speed of the x-component, in addition to the equation of state w 0 = p x0 /ρx0 . Except for the cosmological constant case, the perturbations of x-matter itself are considered. Our primary interest is in the effect of non-zero sound speed on the structure formation and the CMB spectra. It is found that there exist parameter ranges where x-matter models are consistent with all current observations. The x-matter generally leaves imprints in the CMB anisotropy and the matter power spectrum, which should be detectable in future observations. 相似文献

This paper aims to explore anisotropic planar analytical models for dissipative as well as non-dissipative matter distributions. We relate the Weyl tensor and physical variables of matter distribution. Darmois junction conditions are formulated on internal and external hypersurfaces. It is found that our dissipative models show the presence of cavity with non-zero expansion. Finally, we investigate two types of solutions with zero shear as well as heat flux by a specific choice of the mass function and by restricting pressure. 相似文献

We investigate the possibility of discriminating between modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) and Newtonian gravity with dark matter, by studying the vertical dynamics of disc galaxies. We consider models with the same circular velocity in the equatorial plane (purely baryonic discs in MOND and the same discs in Newtonian gravity embedded in spherical dark matter haloes), and we construct their intrinsic and projected kinematical fields by solving the Jeans equations under the assumption of a two-integral distribution function. We find that the vertical velocity dispersion of deep MOND discs can be much larger than in the equivalent spherical Newtonian models. However, in the more realistic case of high surface density discs, this effect is significantly reduced, casting doubt on the possibility of discriminating between MOND and Newtonian gravity with dark matter by using current observations. 相似文献

We comment on a method proposed to study the evolution of General Relativistic Radiating Spheres in both radiation limits, i.e. free streaming out and diffusion, extending it to handle any general radiating spherically symmetric distribution of matter. It is also shown that several dynamic models may emerge from a sole static equation of state. Previous erroneous calculations concerning this method are also commented. 相似文献

Observational evidence shows that gravitational lensing induces an angular correlation between the distribution of galaxies and much more distant QSOs. We use weak gravitational lensing theory to calculate this angular correlation, updating previous calculations and presenting new results exploring the dependence of the correlation on the large-scale structure. We study the dependence of the predictions on a variety of cosmological models, such as cold dark matter models, mixed dark matter models and models based on quintessence. We also study the dependence on the assumptions made about the nature of the primordial fluctuation spectrum: adiabatic, isocurvature and power spectra motivated by the cosmic string scenario are investigated. Special attention is paid to the issue of galaxy biasing, which is fully incorporated. We show that different mass power spectra imply distinct predictions for the angular correlation, and therefore the angular correlation provides an extra source of information about cosmological parameters and mechanisms of structure formation. We compare our results with observational data and discuss their potential uses. In particular, it is suggested that the observational determination of the galaxy–QSO correlation may be used to give an independent measurement of the mass power spectrum. 相似文献

In this paper we consider the use of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) as distance markers to study the unification of dark energy and dark matter in the context of the so-called generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG) model. We consider that the GRB luminosity may be estimated from its variability and time-lag, and we also use the so-called Ghirlanda relation. We evaluate the improvements expected once more GRBs and their redshift become available. We show that although GRBs allow for extending the Hubble diagram to higher redshifts, its use as a dark energy probe is limited when compared to Type Ia supernovae. We find that the information from GRBs can provide some bounds on the amount of dark matter and dark energy independently of the equation of state. This is particularly evident for XCDM-type models, which are, for low redshifts ( z ≤ 2) , degenerate with the GCG. 相似文献

We study the distribution of dark matter in dwarf spheroidal galaxies by modelling the moments of their line-of-sight velocity distributions. We discuss different dark matter density profiles, both cuspy and possessing flat density cores. The predictions are made in the framework of standard dynamical theory of two-component (stars and dark matter) spherical systems with different velocity distributions. We compare the predicted velocity dispersion profiles to observations in the case of Fornax and Draco dwarfs. For isotropic models the dark haloes with cores are found to fit the data better than those with cusps. Anisotropic models are studied by fitting two parameters, dark mass and velocity anisotropy, to the data. In this case all profiles yield good fits, but the steeper the cusp of the profile, the more tangential is the velocity distribution required to fit the data. To resolve this well-known degeneracy of density profile versus velocity anisotropy, we obtain predictions for the kurtosis of the line-of-sight velocity distribution for models found to provide best fits to the velocity dispersion profiles. It turns out that profiles with cores typically yield higher values of kurtosis which decrease more steeply with distance than the cuspy profiles, which will allow us to discriminate between the profiles once the kurtosis measurements become available. We also show that with present quality of the data the alternative explanation of velocity dispersions in terms of Modified Newtonian Dynamics cannot yet be ruled out. 相似文献

本文分别从数值模拟、理论和观测的角度研究和分析了三点相关函数以及双谱对尺度、形状和光度等的依赖性,并比较了数值模拟与二阶扰动理论以及暗晕模型的差别。我们发现二阶扰动理论即使在线性尺度上也是与数值模拟存在明显偏差的,它并不足以很好地描述暗物质双谱在大尺度上的行为。如果要与数值模拟更好地吻合,我们需要引入更高阶的修正。我们用其他人的半解析模型构建了对应于我们数值模拟的模拟星系样本,并计算了不同光度星系样本的双谱从而得到了相应的星系偏袒值。我们发现,对星系密度场的泰勒二阶展开是可以适用到准线性尺度k(?)0.15h/Mpc上的,但是要通过三点相关来获得准确的星系偏袒值,我们需要拥有对暗物质密度场的准确估计,这却是二阶非线性扰动理论所无法做到的。暗晕模型在定性描述双谱行为方面是十分有效的,但是它与数值模拟的定量比较还是存在很多不同。要用暗晕模型来精确描述双谱,我们需要对模型的各种设定做出精细的调节和改进。最后,我们还利用了SDSS的最新观测数据测量了红移空间的三点相关函数以及投影三点相关函数,并研究它们对于星系光度、颜色和恒星质量等性质的依赖关系。我们发现,不同于之前的许多工作,星系的归约三点相关函数对光度存在明显的依赖性,而这种依赖性却是与三角形的形状和尺度耦合在一起。三点相关对恒星质量的依赖与光度依赖性十分类似。而颜色的依赖性在小尺度上则比光度和恒星质量更显著一些。 相似文献

The thermodynamic viability of some dark energy models reconstructed through the cosmological jerk parameter is investigated. Some models, already available in the literature, are picked up for the purpose. The models are broadly classified in two categories, depending on whether there is an interaction in the dark sector or not. The validity of the Generalized Second law of Thermodynamics (GSL) is used as the diagnostics. Hayward–Kodama temperature is considered in place of Hawking temperature in order to account for the dynamical nature of the spacetime. It is found that depending on the parametrization ansatz for jerk, the total entropy is increasing with time, so it is quite possible to find viable models. This holds even with an interaction in the dark sector. 相似文献

We apply a novel adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) code, AMRVAC (Adaptive Mesh Refinement version of the Versatile Advection Code), to numerically investigate the various evolutionary phases in the interaction of a relativistic shell with its surrounding cold interstellar medium (ISM). We do this for both 1D isotropic and full 2D jet-like fireball models. This is relevant for gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), and we demonstrate that, thanks to the AMR strategy, we resolve the internal structure of the shocked shell–ISM matter, which will leave its imprint on the GRB afterglow. We determine the deceleration from an initial Lorentz factor γ= 100 up to the almost Newtonian phase of the flow. We present axisymmetric 2D shell evolutions, with the 2D extent characterized by their initial opening angle. In such jet-like GRB models, we discuss the differences with the 1D isotropic GRB equivalents. These are mainly due to thermally induced sideways expansions of both the shocked shell and shocked ISM regions. We found that the propagating 2D ultrarelativistic shell does not accrete all the surrounding medium located within its initial opening angle. Part of this ISM matter gets pushed away laterally and forms a wide bow-shock configuration with swirling flow patterns trailing the thin shell. The resulting shell deceleration is quite different from that found in isotropic GRB models. As long as the lateral shell expansion is merely due to ballistic spreading of the shell, isotropic and 2D models agree perfectly. As thermally induced expansions eventually lead to significantly higher lateral speeds, the 2D shell interacts with comparably more ISM matter and decelerates earlier than its isotropic counterpart. 相似文献

We consider a generalization of the Standard Model whose action displays conformal invariance in d dimensions. The model contains a strongly coupled dark matter sector which breaks conformal symmetry dynamically. The model evades conformal anomaly and leads to identically zero vacuum energy in flat space-time. Hence it does not suffer from the problem of fine tuning of the cosmological constant. We determine the contribution of non-relativistic matter to the energy-momentum tensor and determine a parameter regime in which it approximately reduces to the standard result. We show how dark energy and dark matter arises in this model. We discuss the parameter range for which the model reduces to the ΛCDM model and hence is consistent with observations. 相似文献

Solar observations from millimeter to ultraviolet wavelengths show that there is a temperature minimum between photosphere and chromosphere. Analyses based on semi-empirical models locate this point at about 500 km above the photosphere. The consistency of these models has been tested by means of millimeter to infrared observations. We show that variations of the theoretical radial temperature profile near the temperature minimum impact the brightness temperature at centimeter, submillimeter, and infrared wavelengths, but the millimeter wavelength emission remains unchanged. We found a region between 500 and 1000 km above the photosphere that remains hidden to observations at the frequencies that we studied here. 相似文献

We develop a detailed model of the Milky Way (a `prototypical' disk galaxy) and extend it to other disks with the help of
some simple scaling relations, obtained in the framework of Cold Dark Matter models. This phenomenological (`hybrid') approach
to the study of disk galaxy evolution allows us to reproduce successfully a large number of observed properties of disk galaxies
in the local Universe and up to redshift z ∼ 1. The important conclusion is that, on average, massive disks have formed the bulk of their stars earlier than their lower
mass counterparts: the `star formation hierarchy' has been apparently opposite to the `dark matter assembly' hierarchy. It
is not yet clear whether `feedback' (as used in semi-analytical models of galaxy evolution) can explain that discrepancy.
