To beta or not to beta: can higher-order Jeans analysis break the mass-anisotropy degeneracy in simulated dwarfs?

1 code implementation20 Nov 2019 Anna Genina, Justin I. Read, Carlos S. Frenk, Shaun Cole, Alejandro Benitez-Llambay, Aaron D. Ludlow, Julio F. Navarro, Kyle A. Oman, Andrew Robertson

A non-parametric higher-order Jeans analysis method, GravSphere, was recently used to constrain the density profiles of Local Group dwarf galaxies, classifying them into those that are more likely to have an inner dark matter cusp and those that are likely to have a core (Read et al.).

We provide a best-fitting contracted NFW halo model to the MW rotation curve that matches the data very well.

Disentangling satellite galaxy populations using orbit tracking in simulations

1 code implementation28 Jan 2013 Kyle A. Oman, Michael J. Hudson, Peter S. Behroozi

We parameterize the orbital history by the time since crossing within 2. 5 rvir of the cluster centre and use our catalog to estimate the probability density over a range of this parameter given a set of present-day projected (i. e. observable) phase space coordinates.
