The impact of inelastic self-interacting dark matter on the dark matter structure of a Milky Way halo

We study the effects of inelastic dark matter (DM) self-interactions on the internal structure of a simulated Milky Way (MW)-size halo. Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) is an alternative to collisionless cold dark matter (CDM) which offers a unique solution to the problems encountered with CDM on...
