Numerical challenges for energy conservation in N -body simulations of collapsing self-interacting dark matter halos
Context. Dark matter (DM) halos can be subject to gravothermal collapse if the DM is not collisionless, but engaged in strong self-interactions instead. When the scattering is able to efficiently transfer heat from the centre to the outskirts, the central region of the halo collapses and reaches den...
