The Galactic Halo from Microlensing
arXiv:astro-ph/0111117 · doi:10.1023/A:1015814010724
Abstract
The status of the microlensing search for galactic dark matter in the form of massive astronomical compact halo objects (machos) is reviewed. Unresolved issues are discussed, as well as possible ways to solve these.
