GW emission and relativistic dynamical friction in intermediate mass ratio inspirals

P. Di Cintio, G. Bertone, C. Chiari +4

We present a set of preliminary simulations of intermediate mass ratio inspirals (IMRIs) inside dark matter (DM) spikes accounting for post-Newtonian corrections the interaction be…

Novel constraints on the particle nature of dark matter from stellar streams

Nilanjan Banik, Jo Bovy, Gianfranco Bertone +2

Tidal streams are highly sensitive to perturbations from passing dark matter (DM) subhalos and thus provide a means of measuring their abundance. In a recent paper, we analyzed the…

Evidence of a population of dark subhalos from Gaia and Pan-STARRS observations of the GD-1 stream

Nilanjan Banik, Jo Bovy, Gianfranco Bertone +2

New data from the satellite, when combined with accurate photometry from the Pan-STARRS survey, allow us to accurately estimate the properties of the GD-1 stream. H…

Emergent gravity in galaxies and in the Solar System

Aurelien Hees, Benoit Famaey, Gianfranco Bertone

It was recently proposed that the effects usually attributed to particle dark matter on galaxy scales are due to the displacement of dark energy by baryonic matter, a paradigm know…

Testing modified Newtonian dynamics in the Milky Way

Fabio Iocco, Miguel Pato, Gianfranco Bertone

Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) is an empirical theory originally proposed to explain the rotation curves of spiral galaxies by modifying the gravitational acceleration, rather…
