  3. What is Dark Matter? In a galaxy, the radialprofileof the gravitatingmatter M(r) and thatof the sum ofallluminouscomponentsML(r) do not match. A MASSIVE DARK COMPONENT isintroducedto account for the disagreement: Itsprofile MH(r) mustobey: The DM phenomenon can beinvestigatedonlyifweaccuratelymeausure the distributionof: Luminousmatter. Gravitatingmatter.

  4. Dark Matter Profiles from N-body simulations In ΛCDM scenario the density profile for virialized DM halos of all masses of all masses is empirically described at all times by the universal NFW formula (Navarro+96,97). More massive and halos formed earlier have larger overdensitiesd. Concentration c=R200/ rsis an alternative density measure.

  5. The concentration scales with mass and redshift (Zhao+03,08; Gao+08, Klypin+10): At low z, c decreases with mass. -> Movie 1

  6. Aquarius simulations, highest resolutions to date. Results: CuspyEinasto profiles (Navarro+10). No difference for mass modelling with NFW ones with a dependent slightly on mass.
