"Impact of baryon physics on dark matter structures: a detailed simulation study of halo density profiles" Duffy et al. (2010)
Alan Duffy
My first SPH simulation paper on the "Impact of baryon physics on dark matter structures: a detailed simulation study of halo density profiles". It demonstrated that the physics of galaxy formation can (surprisingly) strongly affect the dark matter distribution. It won the "Best Paper by a UWA Early Career Researcher" award.
