Dark Matter Halo
Problem 1Estimate the local density of the dark halo in the vicinity of the Earth, assuming that its density decreases as .
For and assuming that the dark matter dominates in the halo, one obtains
Problem 2Build the model of the spherically symmetric dark halo density corresponding to the observed galactic rotation curves.
The simplest halo model is the isothermic spherically symmetric one. The radial profile of the density in the model is restricted only by theobserved rotation curves. This restriction leads to the following requirements for radial dependence of the density:a) it must provide linear growth of the rotation curves at small distances.b) it must follow as for large distances, thus providing flat rotation curves.The conditions are satisfied by the following function

where is the local halo density in vicinity of the Sun (if it concerns the dark halo in Milky Way) at and is the coreradius, inside which the density grows (with decreasing ) not faster than and goes to constant, thus providing the linear growth of the

Problem 3In frames of the halo model considered in the previous problem determine the local dark matter density basing on the givenrotation velocities of satellite galaxies at the outer border of the halo and in some point .
Let some satellite galaxy orbits on the distance from the center of the main galaxy of mass with velocity , then

Thus the local density and the core radius can be determined as soon as the rotation velocities and are measured.
