29. The class of models discussed in Ref. represents a quite exhaustive summary of dark matter distribution functions as possible departures from the isothermal sphere model. Notice, however, that it does not include the possibility of nonthermal components in the f(v→), which could, in principle, modify the high-velocity tail of the velocity DF [see, for instance, A. Helmi, S.D.M. White, and V. Springel, Phys. Rev. D 66, 063502 (2002)]. PRVDAQ 0556-2821 10.1103/PhysRevD.66.063502
