The fraction of dark matter within galaxies from the IllustrisTNG simulations

The fraction of dark matter within galaxies from the IllustrisTNG simulations

We use the IllustrisTNG (TNG) cosmological simulations to provide theoretical expectations for the dark matter mass fractions (DMFs) and circular velocity profiles of galaxies. TNG predicts flat circular velocity curves for z = 0 Milky Way (MW)-like galaxies beyond a few kpc from the galaxy centre,...
