Journal Article
Lowing, B., Jenkins, A., Eke, V., & Frenk, C. (2011). A halo expansion technique for approximating simulated dark matter haloes. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 416(4), 2697-2711. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2011.19222.x

We apply a basis function expansion method to create a time-evolving density/potential approximation of the late growth of simulated N-body dark matter haloes. We demonstrate how the potential of a halo from the Aquarius Project can be accurately rep... Read More about A halo expansion technique for approximating simulated dark matter haloes.

The link between galactic satellite orbits and subhalo accretion. (2011)
Journal Article
Lovell, M., Eke, V., Frenk, C., & Jenkins, A. (2011). The link between galactic satellite orbits and subhalo accretion. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 413(4), 3013-3021. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2011.18377.x

We calculate the orbital angular momentum of dark matter subhaloes in the Aquarius simulations of cold dark matter (CDM) galactic haloes. We calculate the orientation of their angular momentum relative to that of the spin vector of their host halo an... Read More about The link between galactic satellite orbits and subhalo accretion..
