Morphological Types of DM Halos in Milky Way-like Galaxies in the TNG50 Simulation: Simple, Twisted, or Stretched

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>We present a comprehensive analysis of the shape of dark matter (DM) halos in a sample of 25 Milky Way-like galaxies in TNG50 simulation. Using an enclosed volume iterative method, we infer an oblate-to-triaxial shape for th...
