1 Phys/Astro 689: Lecture 11 Tidal Debris
2 Goals (1) We ll explore whether we can trace the accretion events that should have formed the Milky Way. (2) We ll discuss the impact of tidal debris on direct detection experiments.
3 Ways to destroy a satellite Evaporation (internal evolution) Tidal Stripping Resonant Heating Disk Shocking
4 Evaporation What are the typical timescales for evaporation? Assume tail of Maxwellian velocity distribution is above vesc On board: find tevap > Hubble time.
5 Tidal Stripping As a satellite is accreted onto a parent galaxy, it feels the gravitational pull of the parent galaxy The force of gravity varies across the satellite (nearest to parent center feels stronger pull) DM or stars outside the tidal radius will be stripped
6 Tidal Stripping
7 Tidal Stripping TIDAL STRIPPING OF SAGITTARIUS (CREDIT: KATHRYN JOHNSTON)
8 Tidal Stripping The gravitational force holding stars to the satellite is determined by the satellite's mass. But stars are being stripped away as the satellite orbits, so its mass is dropping. Since its mass is dropping, its harder for the satellite to hold on to its stars. So its stars get stripped even faster. So its mass drops even faster. So it's even harder to hold on to its stars, so it loses them even more faster. Etc...
9 Resonant Heating If spin of the parent galaxy s disk is aligned with and of similar magnitude to the orbital angular speed of the satellite, get resonant heating For non-circular orbits of the satellite, response is temporary
10 Resonant Heating
11 Disk Shocking When a body passes through the disk, it feels a rapidly varying gravitational field mean density of a subhalo (M=10 7, r=1kpc) = Msun/pc 3, while mean density of disk is 0.2 Msun/pc 3 outside the tidal radius, the disk dominates the gravitational field of the subhalo, adds energy
12 Why do streams form? Imagine a subhalo naturally evaporating, ejecting stars in all directions The maximum distance ejected is set by the maximum energy difference between the escaped star and the satellite On board: change in E of orbit affects the period of the orbit, but depends on ejection angle (stars ejected perpendicular to orbit experience least change)
13 Stream Survival In a spherical potential, the L of an orbit is conserved. Stream remains confined. In a triaxial potential, orbits are stable if the orbital plane coincides with a stable axis; otherwise, precession of the orbit occurs L = Iω is conserved
14 Stream Survival Let the density of the Galaxy be described by ρ(s), 0.5 < q < 1.0 (q = 1 is a spherical halo) consider flatted potential: precession rate is:
15 q=1 IBATA ET AL. 2001
16 q=0.9 IBATA ET AL. 2001
17 q=0.75 IBATA ET AL. 2001
18 q=0.5 IBATA ET AL. 2001
19 Stream Survival Point: The spatial coherence of the stream after a given time depends on the shape of the galactic potential Conversely: streams can be used to measure the shape of the Galactic potential Sagittarius: 0.9 < q < 1.0 Streams at different galactic radii can measure how shape changes with r.
20 Can we identify accreted substructure?
21 Can we identify accreted substructure? Number of streams as a function of galactic radius (in 2kpc side boxes) Sats with large sigma and small r will be easiest to detect HELMI ET AL. 2003
22 Can we identify accreted substructure? substructure becomes kinematically cold HELMI ET AL. 2003
23 Can we identify accreted substructure? Helmi et al use Hipparcos data to identify possible stream within 40pc of Sun in action space.
24 Can we identify accreted substructure? Using radial velocities alone, and more distant (8-20kpc), SEGUE has identified velocity components in the inner halo SCHLAUFMAN ET AL. (2009)
25 Can we identify accreted substructure? Using radial velocities alone, and more distant (8-20kpc), SEGUE has identified velocity components in the inner halo, and follow up shows that they are chemically coherent SCHLAUFMAN ET AL. (2011)

32 Surveys Gaia vs Hipparcos
33 Predictions for Gaia Helmi et al evolve 33 satellites over 12 Gyr. After convolving by Gaia detection limits, find them in invariant space. Develop a clump finding algorithm, can recover ~50% of the original satellites
34 Implications for Direct Detection A Standard Halo Model is typically adopted to describe the velocity distribution function (VDF) of DM expected near the Sun Debris flows alter this expectation Baryons alter this expectation (dark disks)
35 Tidal Flows RAVE finds no streams (no coherent flows like Sgr) near the sun (8 kpc 3 ); Seabroke et al But a contribution from more evolved debris is likely to still exist
36 The VDF of Halos MAO, STRIGARI ET AL. (2013) SHM: Maxwellian with peak at 220 km/s, tail to vesc ~ 550km/s (black line) Colors show results from DM-only simulations instead (at varying radii from halo center)
