They find that while the central concentration does result in rounder, more radially anisotropic haloes, the halo’s shape is essentially returned to its original state if the disc is artificially ‘evaporated’.
Influence of baryons on the orbital structure of dark matter haloes
This indicates that the character of the orbits is not generally changed by the central mass concentration, the box orbits are not destroyed but simply become rounder in line with the potential.
Influence of baryons on the orbital structure of dark matter haloes
Power-law galaxies clearly have preferentially higher ellipticity, while core galaxies are preferentially rounder, in general agreement with the results of Tremblay & Merritt (1996), who explored the relationship between axis ratios and luminosity.
