Download or read book Baryonic Dark Matter written by D. Lynden-Bell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The visible universe is a small perturbation on the material universe. Zwicky and Sinclair Smith in the 1930s gave evidence of invisible mass in the Coma and Virgo Clusters of Galaxies. Better optical data has only served to confound their critics and the X-ray data confirms that the gravitational potentials are many times larger than those predicted on the basis of the observed stars. Dynamical analyses of individual galaxies have found that significant extra mass is needed to explain their rotational velocities. On much larger scales, tens of megaparsecs, there is suggestive evidence that there is even more mass per unit luminosity. What is this non-luminous stuff of which the universe is made'? How much of it is there? Need there be only one kind of stuff? There are three basic possi bili ties:- all of it is ordinary (baryonic) matter, all of it is some other kind of (non-baryonic) matter, or some of it is baryonic and some is non-baryonic.

Book Synopsis Progress in Dark Matter Research by : J. Val Blain
Download or read book Progress in Dark Matter Research written by J. Val Blain and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is generally believed that most of the matter in the universe is dark, i.e. cannot be detected from the light which it emits (or fails to emit). Its presence is inferred indirectly from the motions of astronomical objects, specifically stellar, galactic, and galaxy cluster/supercluster observations. It is also required in order to enable gravity to amplify the small fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background enough to form the large-scale structures that we see in the universe today. For each of the stellar, galactic, and galaxy cluster/supercluster observations the basic principle is that if we measure velocities in some region, then there has to be enough mass there for gravity to stop all the objects flying apart. Dark matter has important consequences for the evolution of the Universe and the structure within it. According to general relativity, the Universe must conform to one of three possible types: open, flat, or closed. The total amount of mass and energy in the universe determines which of the three possibilities applies to the Universe. In the case of an open Universe, the total mass and energy density (denoted by the Greek letter Omega) is less than unity. If the Universe is closed, Omega is greater than unity. For the case where Omega is exactly equal to one the Universe is "flat". This book details leading-edge research from around the globe.

Book Synopsis Secular Evolution of Galaxies by : Jesús Falcón-Barroso
Download or read book Secular Evolution of Galaxies written by Jesús Falcón-Barroso and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The formation and evolution of galaxies is one of the most important topics in modern astrophysics. Secular evolution refers to the relatively slow dynamical evolution due to internal processes induced by a galaxy's spiral arms, bars, galactic winds, black holes and dark matter haloes. It plays an important role in the evolution of spiral galaxies with major consequences for galactic bulges, the transfer of angular momentum, and the distribution of a galaxy's constituent stars, gas and dust. This internal evolution is in turn the key to understanding and testing cosmological models of galaxy formation and evolution. Based on the twenty-third Winter School of the Canary Islands Institute of Astrophysics, this volume presents reviews from nine world-renowned experts on the observational and theoretical research into secular processes, and what these processes can tell us about the structure and formation of galaxies. The volume provides a firm grounding for graduate students and early career researchers working on galactic dynamics and galaxy evolution.
Book Synopsis From Cosmological Simulations to Dark Matter Detection by : Luis Arturo Nunez de Villavicencio Castine

This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary thesis addresses spiral galaxy formation and dark matter phenomenology as well as its detection by the ANTARES neutrino telescope. A suite of high-resolution cosmological hydrodynamics simulations, with theadaptive mesh refinement code RAMSES, of the same galaxy, is performed using different modellings of stellar formation (Kennicut law (KS) versus gravo-turbulent criteria (multiFF)) and supernovae feed back (delayed cooling (DC) versus mechanical feedback (ME)). The results on the morphology and the properties of the galaxies are compared to observational constraints and high light the impact of baryonic physics on a spiral galaxy. The most elaborated scenarios (multi FF+DC or multi FF+ME) are clearly favoured and give rise to more realistic stellar mass and disc morphology.The resulting dark matter distributions in halos are also analyzed and compared showing some significant differences. The understanding of baryonic physics is crucial to understand the dark matter distribution. Namely, it is specifically modified and contracted by the baryonic potential of each simulation with a determining impact on direct and indirect dark matter detection. Moreover,we also use those informations about the dark matter to probe the Eddington inversion method aiming at predicting phase-space distribution from the gravitationnal potential. Those results are positive and very consistent and promisingin view of GAIA data analysis improvement and calibration. Further more, we also revisit the astrophysical uncertainties related to the dark matter velocity distribution relevant in the capture by the Sun and evaluate those effects to about 15-20% on the capture rate.
Book Synopsis Matter, Dark Matter, and Anti-Matter by : Alain Mazure
Download or read book Matter, Dark Matter, and Anti-Matter written by Alain Mazure and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-16 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over ten years, the dark side of the universe has been headline news. Detailed studies of the rotation of spiral galaxies, and 'mirages' created by clusters of galaxies bending the light from very remote objects, have convinced astronomers of the presence of large quantities of dark (unseen) matter in the cosmos. The most striking fact is that they seem to compromise about 95% of the matter/energy content of the universe. As for ordinary matter, although we are immersed in a sea of dark particles, including primordial neutrinos and photons from fossil cosmological radiation, both we and our environment are made of ordinary, 'baryonic' matter. Authors Mazure and Le Brun present the inventory of matter, baryonic and exotic, and investigating the nature and fate of matter's twin, anti-matter. They show how technological progress has been a result of basic research, in tandem with the evolution of new ideas, and how the combined effect of these advances might help lift the cosmic veil.

Book Synopsis Stellar Disk Evolution and Gaseous Disk Turbulence of Dwarf Irregular Galaxies by : Hong-Xin Zhang
Download or read book Stellar Disk Evolution and Gaseous Disk Turbulence of Dwarf Irregular Galaxies written by Hong-Xin Zhang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-27 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the stellar disk evolution and gas disk turbulence of the most numerous galaxies in the local Universe – the dwarf galaxies. The “outside-in” disk shrinking mode was established for a relatively large sample of dwarf galaxies for the first time, and this is in contrast to the “inside-out” disk growth mode found for spiral galaxies. Double exponential brightness profiles also correspond to double exponential stellar mass profiles for dwarf galaxies, which is again different from most spiral galaxies. The cool gas distribution in dwarf galaxies was probed with the spatial power spectra of hydrogen iodide (HI) gas emission, and provided indirect evidence that inner disks of dwarf galaxies have proportionally more cool gas than outer disks. The finding that no correlation exists between gas power spectral indices and star formation gave important constraints on the relation between turbulence and star formation in dwarf galaxies.

Book Synopsis Dark Matter in the Darkest Galaxies by : Jaya Nagarajan-Swenson
Download or read book Dark Matter in the Darkest Galaxies written by Jaya Nagarajan-Swenson and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dark matter in our universe is not evenly distributed: some galaxies are lacking it entirely, and some galaxies have it in abundance. While its existence is generally agreed on, its distribution within galaxies is hotly debated. Low Surface Brightness (LSB) spirals are a class of galaxy with peculiarly low star-formation rates, and one possible explanation for this points to an overabundance of dark matter relative to normal (baryonic) matter. LSB spirals tend to be dark matter-dominated at all radii, which makes them an ideal place to probe the structure of galactic dark matter haloes. In contrast, “normal” High Surface Brightness (HSB) spirals are baryon-dominated at the core, which obscures the central structure and muddles the apparent mass distribution of the galaxy. Currently, LSB spirals appear to be compatible with a “cored” halo, possibly due to early central star formation driving baryons out of the center, which dragged dark matter out along with it, thereby transforming a cuspy halo into a cored one. This thesis explores both the mystery of LSB spirals and the mystery of dark matter, pairing them together to shed light on the evolutionary difference between LSB and HSB spiral galaxies and begin examining cusp-core transformation. Optical emission line-derived velocity fields are used to determine the dynamical mass at different radii in a sample of eight LSB spirals, and archival Spitzer IRAC images allow the stellar mass at different radii in these galaxies to be determined. This results in a robust estimation of the structure of each galaxy's dark matter halo. We conclude that LSB spirals indeed tend to be dark matter-dominated at all radii, and highlight UGC 4179 as a likely case of solid-body rotation. Additionally, a peculiar trend in the [OII] to [OIII] ratio in these spectra is apparent, possibly supporting the truncated IMF hypothesis to explain LSB spirals.

This book was released on 2012-04-23 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dwarf galaxy research constitutes an extremely vibrant field of astrophysical research, with many long-standing questions still unsettled and new ones constantly arising. The intriguing diversity of the dwarf galaxy population, observed with advanced ground-based and space-borne observatories over a wide spectral window providing an unprecedented level of detail, poses new challenges for both observers and theoreticians. The aim of this symposium was to bring together these two groups to exchange ideas and new results on the many evolutionary aspects of and open issues concerning dwarf galaxies. The main topics addressed include: the birth of dwarf galaxies: theoretical concepts and observable relics across wavelengths and time, the morphological, structural and chemical evolution of dwarf galaxies, possible evolutionary connections between early-type and late-type dwarfs, the star formation history of dwarf galaxies and its dependence on intrinsic and environmental properties, the origin and implications of starburst activity in dwarf galaxies, the fate of dwarfish systems born out of tidally ejected matter in galaxy collisions.
