Dark matter influence on tidal tails: Stellar distribution (and respective zoom in) of GC5 for the case where it was originally embedded in a dark matter mini-halo (right) and where it was devoid of it (left), both centred in the GC centre of mass. The chosen snapshot was such that GC5 was located at roughly the same orbital radius for both scenarios, for a fairer comparison. This plot highlights more prominent tails in the dark matter-free case, while clusters formed inside dark matter mini-halos present a more compact stellar envelope. Hence, the dark matter shield (Sect. 3.1) has the effect of delaying the formation of tidal tails. Movies are available online.
