X-ray study of the dark matter distribution in clusters of galaxies with chandra... The inner slope $\alpha$ of the total mass density profile($\rho(r) \propto r^{-\alpha}$) is derived from the slope of the integratedmass profile....
T typeset using l atex style emulateapj v. 10/09/06 a detailed statistical analysis of the dark matter mass profiles of galaxy clusters... We find that, of the two-parameter models, the NFW is still the best representation, but we also find moderate statistical evidence that a generalized three-parameter NFW model with a freely varying inner slope is preferred, despite penalizing against the extra degree of freedom....
**title** asp conference series, vol. **volume***, **year of publication** **names of editors** multiwavelength rotation curves to test dark halo central shapes... Having verified the existence of the so-called core-cusp problem, we find that the dark halo density inner slope is related to the galaxy masses....
Dark matter halos inner slope from weak gravitational lensingWe construct two linear filtering techniques based on weak gravitational lensing to constrain the inner slope α of the density profile of dark-matter halos....
