Halo Decomposition

Halo Decomposition is a computational framework in astrophysics that decomposes the rotation curve of a galaxy into distinct dynamical components—such as stellar, gaseous, and dark matter halo contributions—to isolate and characterize the gravitational influence of the dark matter halo.
