Hierarchical phase space structure of dark matter haloes: Tidal debris, caustics, and dark matter annihilation
Most of the mass content of dark matter haloes is expected to be in the form of tidal debris. The density of debris is not constant, but rather can grow due to formation of caustics at the apocenters and pericenters of the orbit, or decay as a result of phase mixing. In the phase space, the debris a...
