Astrophysical Observations of a Dark Matter-Baryon Fifth Force

Moira I. Gresham, Vincent S. H. Lee, Kathryn M. Zurek

We consider the effects of an attractive, long-range Yukawa interaction between baryons and dark matter (DM), focusing in particular on temperature and pulsar timing observations o…

Asymmetric Dark Stars and Neutron Star Stability

Moira I. Gresham, Kathryn M. Zurek

We consider gravitationally bound states of asymmetric dark matter (ADM stars), and the impact of ADM capture on the stability of neutron stars. We derive and interpret the equatio…

Astrophysical Signatures of Asymmetric Dark Matter Bound States

Moira I. Gresham, Hou Keong Lou, Kathryn M. Zurek

Nuggets---very large stable bound objects arising in the presence of a sufficiently attractive and long-range force and in the absence of a dark Coulomb force---are a smoking gun s…

Making Asymmetric Dark Matter Gold: Early Universe Synthesis of Nuggets

Moira I. Gresham, Hou Keong Lou, Kathryn M. Zurek

We compute the mass function of bound states of Asymmetric Dark Matter--nuggets--synthesized in the early Universe. We apply our results for the nugget density and binding energy c…

Nuclear Structure of Bound States of Asymmetric Dark Matter

Moira I. Gresham, Hou Keong Lou, Kathryn M. Zurek

Models of Asymmetric Dark Matter (ADM) with a sufficiently attractive and long-range force gives rise to stable bound objects, analogous to nuclei in the Standard Model, called nug…

Identifying the Theory of Dark Matter with Direct Detection

Vera Gluscevic, Moira I. Gresham, Samuel D. McDermott +2

Identifying the true theory of dark matter depends crucially on accurately characterizing interactions of dark matter (DM) with other species. In the context of DM direct detection…
