Virial Scaling of Massive Dark Matter Halos: Why Clusters Prefer a High Normalization Cosmology
Annotatsiya
We present a precise estimate of the bulk virial scaling relation of halos formed via hierarchical clustering in \nan ensemble of simulated cold dark matter cosmologies. The result is insensitive to cosmological parameters; the \npresence of a trace, dissipationless gas component; and numerical resolution down to a limit of 1000 particles. The \ndark matter velocity dispersion scales with total mass as log½ ¼ DM(M;z) log (1082:9 4:0 km s1) þ (0:3361 \n0:0026)log h(z)M200 /10 ½ 15 M , with h(z) being the dimensionless Hubble parameter. At fixed mass, the velocity dispersion \nlikelihood is nearly lognormal, with scatter ln ¼ 0:0426 0:015, except for a tail with higher dispersions \ncontaining 10% of the population that are merger transients. We combine this relation with the halo mass function in \nCDM models and show that a low normalization condition, S8 ¼ 8(m /0:3)0:35 ¼ 0:69, favored by recent WMAP \nand SDSS analysis requires that galaxy and gas-specific energies in rich clusters be 50% larger than that of the underlying \ndark matter. Such large energetic biases are in conflict with the current generation of direct simulations of cluster \nformation. A higher normalization, S8 ¼ 0:80, alleviates this tension and implies that the hot gas fraction within r500 \nis (0:71 0:09) h3=2 \n70 b /m, a value consistent with recent Sunyaev-Zel’dovich observations.
