Description
Using a novel 3D modeling approach, we determined the properties of the dark-matter halo of a dozen star-forming galaxies. We find that a significant fraction of the sample shows cored dark-matter profiles over the LCDM expectations (NFW). In addition, the cuspiness of the DM profiles is found to be a strong function of the recent star-formation activity. We will discuss on going work, new results from lensed galaxies, and prospective.
