- W2122592783 abstract "We introduce a very simple model of a dark halo. It is a close relative of Hernquist's model, being generated by the same transformation but this time applied to the logarithmic potential rather than the point mass. The density is proportional to (distance)−1 at small radii, whilst the rotation curve is flat at large radii. Isotropic and radially anisotropic distribution functions are readily found, and the intrinsic and line-of-sight kinematical quantities are available as simple formulae. We also provide an analytical approximation to the Hamiltonian as a function of the actions. As an application, we study the kinematic properties of stellar haloes and tracers in elliptical galaxies. We show that the radial velocity dispersion of a power-law population in a galaxy with a flat rotation-curve always tends to the constant value. This holds true irrespective of the anisotropy or the length-scales of the dark or luminous matter. An analogous result holds for the line-of-sight or projected velocity dispersion of a power-law surface brightness profile. The radial velocity dispersion of Population II stars in the Milky Way is a strongly declining function of Galactocentric radius. So, if the rotation curve is flat, we conclude that the stellar halo density cannot follow a power law at large radii, but must decrease more sharply (like an Einasto profile) or be abruptly truncated at large radii. Both the starcount and kinematic data of the Milky Way stellar halo are well represented by an Einasto profile with index m ≈ 2 and effective radius ≈20 kpc." @default.
