Broken Expectations: The Effects of Modelling Assumptions on the Inferred Dark Matter Distribution in the Milky Way's Satellites

该研究通过模拟银河系卫星星系,发现尽管潮汐力未显著影响密度分布推断,但常用的球对称 Jeans 方程分析(pyGravSphere)因模型局限倾向于低估内禀密度和 J 因子,且 Wolf 质量估计器虽总体准确但对轨道状态敏感,其结果暗示模拟星系与ΛCDM 质量 - 浓度关系的吻合可能要求银河系质量较轻或潮汐作用有限,这与潮汐扰动起源假说存在潜在张力。
