Abstract

In the paper 'NIHAO IV: Core creation and destruction in dark matter density profiles across cosmic time' published in MNRAS main journal, Volume 456, Issue 4, p. 3542-3552, an error in table 2 came to our attention. It appears that there is a mismatch between the values on the second line of table 2 and the corresponding curve in fig. 5. Indeed the parameters given for the fit of the relation between α and Mh are incorrect. We realised that the published parameters correspond to a different fitting formula that was used internally during thiswork and that does not have the right asymptotic behavior when the mass goes to zero. We apologize for this mistake. (Table presented) The correct fitting parameters to reproduce the fitting curve on fig. 5 are given in Table Errata. These parameters were provided only to allow the reader to reproduce our work and therefore this error does not affect our conclusions.
