Primordial Black Holes and the First Stars
Julia Monika Koulen, Stefano Profumo, Nolan Smyth
Primordial black holes (PBHs) constitute a compelling dark matter candidate whose gravitational effects could significantly influence early cosmic structure formation. We investiga…
Constraints on Primordial Black Holes from -body simulations of the Eridanus II Stellar Cluster
Julia Monika Koulen, Stefano Profumo, Nolan Smyth
The evolution of old, compact stellar structures provides strong constraints on macroscopic dark matter candidates such as primordial black holes. In view of recent observational d…
New Light on Dark Extended Lenses with the Roman Space Telescope
William DeRocco, Nolan Smyth, Volodymyr Takhistov
The Roman Space Telescope's Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey will constitute the most sensitive microlensing survey of the Galactic Bulge to date, opening up new opportunities to…
Rogue worlds meet the dark side: revealing terrestrial-mass primordial black holes with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope
William DeRocco, Evan Frangipane, Nick Hamer +2
Gravitational microlensing is one of the strongest observational techniques to observe non-luminous astrophysical bodies. Existing microlensing observations provide tantalizing evi…
Optimal observing strategies for velocity-suppressed dark matter annihilation
Nolan Smyth, Gabriela Huckabee, Stefano Profumo
Numerous particle models for the cosmological dark matter feature a pair-annihilation rate that scales with powers of the relative velocity between the annihilating particles. As a…
