Abstract
We report a series of high-resolution N-body simulations designed to examine the internal physical properties of dark matter halos. A total of fifteen halos, each represented by $\\sim 1$ million particles within the virial radius, have been simulated covering the mass range of $2\\times10^{12}\\sim simulations, we have examined the density profiles of the halos. We found a clear systematic correlation between the halo mass and the slope of the density profile at one percent of the virial radius, in addition to the variations of the slope among halos of the similar mass. More specifically, the slope is respectively. Thus we conclude that the dark matter density profiles, especially in the inner region, are not universal.
