Which Milky Way Streams Make the Best Dark Matter Detectors?

Vedant Chandra, Charlie Conroy, Risa Wechsler +7

The abundance and properties of low-mass dark matter subhalos can be inferred by measuring the density and velocity structure of stellar streams, testing physical models of dark ma…

Advancing Stellar Streams as a Dark Matter Probe -- I: Evolution of the CDM subhalo population

Paul Menker, Andrew Benson

Stellar streams, long, thin streams of stars, have been used as sensitive probes of dark matter substructure for over two decades. Gravitational interactions between dark matter su…

Connection between galaxy morphology and dark-matter halo structure I: a running threshold for thin discs and size predictors from the dark sector

Jinning Liang, Fangzhou Jiang, Houjun Mo +5

We study the connection between galaxy morphology and host dark matter (DM) halo structure using cosmological simulations. Introducing a new kinematic decomposition scheme, we robu…

Forecasts for Galaxy Formation and Dark Matter Constraints from Dwarf Galaxy Surveys

Ethan O. Nadler, Vera Gluscevic, Trey Driskell +4

The abundance of faint dwarf galaxies is determined by the underlying population of low-mass dark matter (DM) halos and the efficiency of galaxy formation in these systems. Here, w…

A compendium of extinction curves for simple galactic geometries

Andrew J. Benson

We calculate the net extinction of galactic light as a function of wavelength, inclination, central optical depth, and morphology for simple galactic geometries using the Hyperion…
