Dynamical limits on galactic winds, halo machos and intergalactic globular clusters

We argue that any violent galactic winds following early epoch of star bursts would significantly weaken the potentials of galaxies, and leave lasting signatures such as a lowered dark halo density and preferentially radial/escaping orbits for halo tracers such as globular clusters. A galaxy is disintegrated if more than half of its dynamical mass is blown off. The presence of dense halos in galaxies and the absence of intergalactic/escaping globulars should imply an upper limit on the amount of baryons lost in galactic winds around 4% of the total mass of the galaxy. This translates to limits on the baryons participating the early star bursts and baryons locked in stellar remnents, such as white dwarfs. The amount of halo white dwarfs claimed in recent proper motion searches and microlensing observations in the Galactic halo are too high to be consistent with our dynamical upper limits. Similar arguments also imply upper limits for the amount of neutron stars and stellar black holes, in galaxy halos. Nevertheless, a milder outflow is desirable, especially in dwarf galaxies, both for lowering their cold dark matter central density and for injecting metals to the intergalactic medium
