Macro Dark Matter Self-Gravitating Halos around Galaxies |
|
Abstract |
A new family of non-relativistic, Newtonian non-quantum equilibrium configurations describing galactic halos is introduced, taking into account a new possibility to identify particles with masses larger than 1 GeV as components of the dark matter. This possibility may have important implications on the formation of very massive particles during the Big Bang. The obtained results are in agreement with the requested values in mass and radius in order to be consistent with the rotational velocity curve observed in the Galaxy. Additionally, the average density of such dark matter halos is similar to that derived for halos of dwarf spheroidal galaxies, which can therefore be interpreted as downscaled versions of larger dark matter distributions around Milky Way-sized galaxies and hint for a common origin of the two families of cosmic structures. |
