Self-similar spherical collapse with tidal torque

N-body simulations have revealed a wealth of information about dark matter halos; however, their results are largely empirical. Using analytic means, we attempt to shed light on simulation results by generalizing the self-similar secondary infall model to include tidal torque. In this first of two p...
