Flux-ratio anomalies in cusp quasars reveal dark matter beyond CDM

Siyuan Hou, Shucheng Xiang, Yue-Lin Sming Tsai +7

Strongly lensed quasars in cusp configurations provide a uniquely sensitive probe of small-scale dark matter structure. Using the largest microlensing-free flux ratios for 17 quadr…

Self-Interacting Dark Matter with Mass Segregation: A Unified Explanation of Dwarf Cores and Small-Scale Lenses

Daneng Yang, Yi-Zhong Fan, Siyuan Hou +1

In two-component self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) models with inter-species interactions, mass segregation arises naturally from collisional relaxation, enhancing central densit…

Diversifying halo structures in two-component self-interacting dark matter models via mass segregation

Daneng Yang, Yue-Lin Sming Tsai, Yi-Zhong Fan

Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM), through gravothermal evolution driven by elastic self-scatterings, offers a compelling explanation for the observed diversity of inner halo den…

Testing the parametric model for self-interacting dark matter using matched halos in cosmological simulations

Daneng Yang, Ethan O. Nadler, Hai-Bo Yu

We systemically evaluate the performance of the self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) halo model proposed in arXiv:2305.16176 with matched halos from high-resolution cosmological CDM…

SASHIMI-SIDM: Semi-analytical subhalo modelling for self-interacting dark matter at sub-galactic scales

Shin'ichiro Ando, Shunichi Horigome, Ethan O. Nadler +2

We combine the semi-analytical structure formation model, SASHIMI, which predicts subhalo populations in collisionless, cold dark matter (CDM), with a parametric model that maps CD…

The impact of baryonic potentials on the gravothermal evolution of self-interacting dark matter haloes

Yi-Ming Zhong, Daneng Yang, Hai-Bo Yu

The presence of a central baryonic potential can have a significant impact on the gravothermal evolution of self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) haloes. We extend a semi-analytical…
