We have determined the mass profiles of dark halos in 83 objects observed by ASCA. The point spread function of X-ray telescope was deconvoled by the Richardson-Lucy algorithm and the temperature profiles were calculated to obtain the mass profiles. The derived mass profiles are consistent with the NFW model in 0.01-1.0 r_virial. We found a good correlation between the scale radius r_s and the characteristic mass density delta_c, which indicates the self-similarity of dark halos. The spectrum index of primordial density fluctuation, P(k) propto k^n, was determined from the slope of r_s - delta_c relation. For M_200=10^12-10^15 M_solar, our analysis gives n=-1.2 +/- 0.3 with a confidence level of 90%. The mass density of dark halos is a good indicator of the mean mass density of the universe at the time when the halos were assembled, z=z_f. Assuming delta_c propto (1+z_f)^3, we have determined the epoch when each dark halo was assembled. Our analysis indicates that the field elliptical galaxies and groups of galaxies formed approximately at 1+z_f ~ 15 and at 1+z_f ~ 7-10 respectively.

Density profiles of cosmological virialized systems, or dark halos, have recently attracted much attention. I first present a brief historical review of numerical simulations to quantify the halo density profiles. Then I describe the latest results o
n the universal density profile and their observational confrontation. Finally I discuss a clustering model of those halos with particular emphasis on the cosmological light-cone effect.
Using observations in the COSMOS field, we report an intriguing correlation between the star formation activity of massive (~10^{11.4}msol) central galaxies, their stellar masses, and the large-scale (~10 Mpc) environments of their group-mass (~10^{1
3.6}msol) dark matter halos. Probing the redshift range z=[0.2,1.0], our measurements come from two independent sources: an X-ray detected group catalog and constraints on the stellar-to-halo mass relation derived from a combination of clustering and weak lensing statistics. At z=1, we find that the stellar mass in star-forming centrals is a factor of two less than in passive centrals at the same halo mass. This implies that the presence or lack of star formation in group-scale centrals cannot be a stochastic process. By z=0, the offset reverses, probably as a result of the different growth rates of these objects. A similar but weaker trend is observed when dividing the sample by morphology rather than star formation. Remarkably, we find that star-forming centrals at z~1 live in groups that are significantly more clustered on 10 Mpc scales than similar mass groups hosting passive centrals. We discuss this signal in the context of halo assembly and recent simulations, suggesting that star-forming centrals prefer halos with higher angular momentum and/or formation histories with more recent growth; such halos are known to evolve in denser large-scale environments. If confirmed, this would be evidence of an early established link between the assembly history of halos on large scales and the future properties of the galaxies that form inside them.
The multicomponent dark matter model with self-scattering and inter-
We describe the first results from two observational projects aimed at measuring the amount and spatial distribution of dark matter in distant early-type galaxies (E/S0s) and clusters of galaxies. At the galaxy scale, the Lenses Structure and Dynamic
s (LSD) Survey is gathering kinematic data for distant (up to $zsim1$) E/S0s that are gravitational lenses. A joint lensing and dynamical analysis constrains the fraction of dark matter within the Einstein radius, the mass-to-light ratio of the stellar component, and the total slope of the mass density profile. These properties and their evolution with redshift are briefly discussed in terms of the formation and evolution of E/S0 galaxies and measurement of the Hubble Constant from gravitational time delay systems. At the cluster scale -- after careful removal of the stellar component with a joint lensing and dynamical analysis -- systems with giant radial arcs can be used to measure precisely the inner slope of the dark matter halo. An HST search for radial arcs and the analysis of a first sample are briefly discussed in terms of the universal dark matter halos predicted by CDM simulations.
We study the environmental dependence of stellar population properties at z ~ 1.3. We derive galaxy properties (stellar masses, ages and star formation histories) for samples of massive, red, passive early-type galaxies in two high-redshift clusters,
RXJ0849+4452 and RXJ0848+4453 (with redshifts of z = 1.26 and 1.27, respectively), and compare them with those measured for the RDCS1252.9-2927 cluster at z=1.24 and with those measured for a similarly mass-selected sample of field contemporaries drawn from the GOODS-South Field. Robust estimates of the aforementioned parameters have been obtained by comparing a large grid of composite stellar population models with extensive 8-10 band photometric coverage, from the rest-frame far-ultraviolet to the infrared. We find no variations of the overall stellar population properties among the different samples of cluster early-type galaxies. However, when comparing cluster versus field stellar population properties we find that, even if the (star formation weighted) ages are similar and depend only on galaxy mass, the ones in the field do employ longer timescales to assemble their final mass. We find that, approximately 1 Gyr after the onset of star formation, the majority (75%) of cluster galaxies have already assembled most (> 80%) of their final mass, while, by the same time, fewer (35%) field ETGs have. Thus we conclude that while galaxy mass regulates the timing of galaxy formation, the environment regulates the timescale of their star formation histories.
