Halos and Disk Stability
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 August 2017
Abstract
The need for halos on stability grounds is not at all compelling. Compared to a bulge, a halo is not very efficient in stabilising a disk. Because the effect of a modest halo is small, it is difficult to infer its presence or absence from stability arguments.
