This thesis deals with the distribution of dark matter in galactic scales. The main evidence of the presence of dark matter in galaxies, and the way it is distributed, comes from their rotation curves, which can not be explained by the luminous matter alone. On the other hand, numerical simulations of structure formation based on "Lambda" CDM successfully explain observations of the Unive…
This project intends to gain new insights into the dynamics of galaxies by jointly using numerical simulations and observational data, and analysis methods that allow a straightforward comparison between these two approaches.For a long time kinematic data from galaxies have been used to study the properties of their dark and baryonic matter components. Most often rotation curves are used …
