摘要
With the help of a set of toy N-body models of dark halo formation, we study the impact of small-scale initial perturbations on the inner density profiles of haloes. We find a significant flattening of the inner slope alpha = d log rho/d log r to alpha = -0.5 in some range of scales and amplitudes of the perturbations (while in the case of absence of these perturbations, the NavarroFrenkWhite profile with alpha = -1 is reproduced). This effect may be responsible for the formation of cuspless galactic haloes.
