Dark Matter Halos: The Dynamical Basis of Effective Empirical Models

We investigate the dynamical basis of the classic empirical models (specifically, Sérsic-Einasto and generalized NFW) that are widely used to describe the distributions of collisionless matter in galaxies. We submit that such a basis is provided by our α-profiles, shown to constitute solutions of th...
