| contents | In this work, we investigate the feasibility of using ringdown waveforms from supermassive black holes immersed in dark-matter halos to extract both the intrinsic black-hole parameters and those characterizing the surrounding matter distribution with future space-based gravitational-wave detectors. Building on the fully relativistic framework developed by Cardoso {\it et al.}, in which the dark-matter degrees of freedom are explicitly accounted for by minimal coupling to the gravitational sector, we construct numerical waveforms for a variety of Dehnen-type dark-matter profiles. We then convert these simulated waveforms into realistic data streams for future space-based gravitational-wave observatories, consistently implementing the second-generation Time-Delay Interferometry scheme in the analysis. We calculate the signal-to-noise ratios and perform a Bayesian parameter estimation to infer the model parameters, quantifying their measurability through the resulting posterior distributions. Our results indicate that the presence of dark matter can induce sizable modifications to the waveforms through the appearance of fluid modes at late times. Furthermore, dark-matter profiles with more pronounced spikes leave stronger imprints on the gravitational-wave signal, thereby enhancing the prospects for parameter inference with future space-based detectors such as LISA, Taiji, and TianQin. |
