Mapping the Distorted Dark Matter Distribution of the LMC-SMC System Prior to Milky Way Infall with Basis Function Expansions
Abstract The SMC orbits within the LMC’s dark matter (DM) halo in a $\sim$ 1:10 mass-ratio encounter. The LMC:Milky Way (MW) interaction is also $\sim$ 1:10, and is expected to perturb the MW’s DM distribution. However,…
