Generating the wide sequence of Diffuse Galaxies with de Broglie waves of Dark Matter

Jiashuo Zhang, Tom Broadhurst, Alvaro Pozo +9

Extensive Euclid satellite imaging at low surface brightness has revealed that most nearby galaxies are diffuse-looking spheroids, where the stellar radius increases for over three…

Model independent lensing sub-structure detection with multiply-imaged star clusters constellations

Leo W. H. Fung, Tom Broadhurst, Sung Kei Li +3

A broad class of dark matter (DM) models predicts the existence of sub-structures residing in DM haloes on sub-resolvable angular scales. Techniques to extract such a generic featu…

Gravitational Lensing Predictions from Wave Simulations of Fuzzy Dark Matter

Jiajun Zhou, Zhengxiang Li, Amruth Alfred +3

In the cold dark matter paradigm, ultra-light particles are emerging as strong contenders to conventional massive particles. A unique prediction of dark matter comprising such ultr…

The Subversive Role of Excessive External Shear in Concealing Lensing Anomalies

Amruth Alfred, Shashpal Singh, Rommulus Francis Lewis +5

To best reproduce observed multiply-lensed lensed images, lens models usually incorporate shear attributed to objects unrelated to the lensing galaxy (i.e., external shear): whethe…

Extragalactic microlensing through Ultra Diffuse Galaxies

Sung Kei Li, Thomas Broadhurst, Jose M. Diego +4

Stellar microlensing is a powerful method to constrain compact dark matter models, uncover binary stars, and exoplanets during caustic crossing events. At cosmological distances, {…
