Realistic triaxial density--potential--force profiles for stellar systems and dark matter halos (2007)

Terzic, Balsa, Sprague, Benjamin J.

Popular models for describing the luminosity-density profiles of dynamically hot stellar systems (e.g., Jaffe, Hernquist, Dehnen) were constructed to match the deprojected form of de Vaucouleurs'...

Empirical Models for Dark Matter Halos. II. Inner profile slopes, dynamical profiles, and rho/sigma^3 (2006)

Graham, Alister W., Merritt, David, Moore, Ben, Diemand, Juerg, Terzic, Balsa

We have recently shown that both the Prugniel-Simien model and Sersic's function (hereafter referred to as the Einasto model when applied to internal density profiles) describe simulated dark matter...

Empirical Models for Dark Matter Halos. III. The Kormendy relation and the log(rho_e)-log(R_e) relation (2006)

Graham, Alister W., Merritt, David, Moore, Ben, Diemand, Juerg, Terzic, Balsa

We have recently shown that the 3-parameter density-profile model from Prugniel & Simien provides a better fit to simulated, galaxy- and cluster-sized, dark matter halos than an NFW-like model with...

Empirical models for dark matter halos I: nonparametric construction of density profiles and comparison with parametric models (2006)

Merritt, David, Graham, Alister W., Moore, Ben, Diemand, Jurg, Terzic, Balsa

We use techniques from nonparametric function estimation theory to extract the density profiles, and their derivatives, from a set of N-body dark matter halos. We consider halos generated from ΛCDM...

Empirical models for Dark Matter Halos. I. Nonparametric Construction of Density Profiles and Comparison with Parametric Models (2005)

Merritt, David, Graham, Alister W., Moore, Ben, Diemand, Juerg, Terzic, Balsa

We use techniques from nonparametric function estimation theory to extract the density profiles, and their derivatives, from a set of N-body dark matter halos. We consider halos generated from LCDM...

Density-potential pairs for spherical stellar systems with Sersic light-profiles and (optional) power-law cores (2005)

Terzic, Balsa, Graham, Alister W.

Popular models for describing the luminosity-density profiles of dynamically hot stellar systems (e.g., Jaffe, Hernquist, Dehnen) were constructed with the desire to match the deprojected form of an...

Noise-Induced Phase Space Transport in Time-Periodic Hamiltonian Systems (2003)

Terzic, Balsa, Kandrup, Henry E.

Orbits in a three-dimensional potential subjected to periodic driving, V(x^i,t)=[1+m_0 sin(omega t) V_0(x^i), divide naturally into two types, regular and chaotic, between which transitions are...

Orbital structure in oscillating galactic potentials (2003)

Terzic, Balsa, Kandrup, Henry E.

This paper focuses on symmetric potentials subjected to periodic driving. Four unperturbed potentials V_0(r) were considered, namely the Plummer potential and Dehnen potentials with \gamma=0.0, 0.5,...

Building Self-Consistent Triaxial Galaxy Models Using Schwarzschild's Method (2003)

Terzic, Balsa

We use Schwarzschild's orbit superposition method to build self-consistent models of elliptical galaxies with scale-free potentials. Our exhaustive study of all physical shapes and central densities...

Supermassive Black Hole Binaries as Galactic Blenders (2003)

Kandrup, Henry E., Sideris, Ioannis V., Terzic, Balsa, Bohn, Courtlandt L.

This paper focuses on the dynamical implications of close supermassive black hole binaries both as an example of resonant phase mixing and as a potential explanation of inversions and other anomalous...

Semi-Analytic Estimates of Lyapunov Exponents in Lower-Dimensional Systems (2002)

Terzic, Balsa, Kandrup, Henry E.

Recent work has shown that statistical arguments, seemingly well-justified in higher dimensions, can also be used to derive reasonable, albeit less accurate, estimates of the largest Lyapunov...
