Small scale problems of the ΛCDM model: a short review

A Del Popolo, M Le Delliou - Galaxies, 2017 - mdpi.com
The ΛCDM model, or concordance cosmology, as it is often called, is a paradigm at its
maturity. It is clearly able to describe the universe at large scale, even if some issues remain …

Non-baryonic dark matter in cosmology

A Del Popolo - AIP Conference Proceedings, 2013 - pubs.aip.org
This paper is based on lectures given at the IX Mexican School on Gravitation and
Mathematical Physics. The lectures (as the paper) were a broad-band review of the current …

Review of solutions to the cusp-core problem of the ΛCDM model

A Del Popolo, M Le Delliou - Galaxies, 2021 - mdpi.com
This review aims at proposing to the field an overview of the Cusp-core problem, including a
discussion of its advocated solutions, assessing how each can satisfactorily provide a …

The Cusp/Core problem: supernovae feedback versus the baryonic clumps and dynamical friction model

A Del Popolo, F Pace - Astrophysics and Space Science, 2016 - Springer
In the present paper, we compare the predictions of two well known mechanisms considered
able to solve the cusp/core problem (a. supernova feedback; b. baryonic clumps-DM …

A unified solution to the small scale problems of the ΛCDM model

A Del Popolo, JAS Lima, JC Fabris… - Journal of Cosmology …, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
We study, by means of the model proposed in Del Popolo (2009), the effect of baryon
physics on the small scale problems of the CDM model. We show that, using this model, the …

Evidence against cuspy dark matter haloes in large galaxies

DC Rodrigues, A del Popolo, V Marra… - Monthly Notices of …, 2017 - academic.oup.com
We develop and apply new techniques to uncover systematic effects in galaxy rotation
curves (RCs). Considering that an ideal dark matter (DM) profile should yield RCs that have …

On the absence of a universal surface density, and a maximum Newtonian acceleration in dark matter haloes: Consequences for MOND

Y Zhou, A Del Popolo, Z Chang - Physics of the Dark Universe, 2020 - Elsevier
We study the dark matter (DM) surface density using the SPARC sample and compare it to
Donato et al.(2009) result. By means of MCMC method, we infer the best-fitting parameters …

On the surface density of dark matter haloes

A Saburova, AD Popolo - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
In this article, we test the conclusion of the universality of the dark matter (DM) halo surface
density μ0D= ρ0 r 0. According to our study, the dispersion of values of μ0D is twice as high …

Cusps and cores in the presence of galactic bulges

A Del Popolo, N Hiotelis - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle …, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
In this paper, we study how the presence of bulge formation in galaxies influence their inner
density profile, by means of an extended version of the Del Popolo (2009) semi-analytical …

A unified solution to the small scale problems of the ΛCDM model II: introducing parent-satellite interaction

A Del Popolo, M Le Delliou - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
We continue the study of the impact of baryon physics on the small scale problems of the
ΛCDM model, based on a semi-analytical model (Del Popolo, 2009). With such model, we …
