Halo Asphericity and the Shear 3-pt Function
نویسندگان
چکیده
We demonstrate through the use of a simple toy model that asphericity in dark matter halos has a measurable effect on the configuration dependence of the weak lensing shear 3-point function at small scales. This sensitivity provides a way, in principle, to measure the shapes of dark matter halos. The distribution of halo ellipticities should be included in models aiming at a high fidelity prediction of n-point shear correlation statistics. Subject headings:

We study the impact of the halo shape and geometry on the expected weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter annihilation signal from the galactic center. As the halo profile in the innermost region is still poorly constrained, we focus on geometrical distortions and consider different density behaviors like flat cores, cusps and spikes. We show that asphericity has a strong impact...

In this work, a lightly doped drain and source CNTFET with a linear channel impurity halo is proposed and the effect of linear halo slope variation on ON current, ON–OFF current ratio, leakage current, power–delay product (PDP) and cutoff frequency has been investigated. Proposed linear halo lightly doped drain and source CNTFETs has been simulated using non equilibrium Green’...
متن کاملExplicit computation of shear three-point correlation functions: the one-halo model case
Abstract. We present a method for calculating explicit expressions of the shear three-point function for various cosmological models. The method is applied here to the one-halo model in case of power law density profiles for which results are detailed. The three-point functions are found to reproduce to a large extent patterns in the shear correlations obtained in numerical simulations and may ...
متن کاملThe Three-Point Correlation Function in Cosmology
With the advent of high-quality surveys in cosmology the full three-point correlation function will be a valuable statistic for describing structure formation models. It contains information on cosmological parameters and detailed halo properties that cannot be extracted from the two-point correlation function. We use the halo clustering model to analytically calculate the three-point correlati...
متن کاملEnvironmental dependence in the ellipsoidal collapse model
N-body simulations have demonstrated a correlation between the properties of haloes and their environment. In this paper, we assess whether the ellipsoidal collapse model, whose dynamics includes the tidal shear, can produce a similar dependence. First, we explore the statistical correlation that originates from Gaussian initial conditions. We derive analytic expressions for a number of joint s...
