Flat Circular Velocities on a megaparsec scale from the $\Lambda$CDM model
read the original abstract
A recent study using weak gravitational lensing reveals that there are some isolated galaxies having almost flat rotation curves at very large distance from the galactic centres. According to the authors of the study this provides a strong challenge the standard cold dark matter model, since the dark haloes are too small to explain their observations, especially for small stellar masses. In this article, we show that improving their model, the virial radius is larger than their estimates. The NFW rotational curve, and especially the pseudo Isothermal one, are in agreement with their flat rotational curves, especially for the larger baryonic mass bins used by the authors.
