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…
Kinetic recoupling of dark matter
Benjamin V. Lehmann, Logan Morrison, Stefano Profumo +1
We study the possibility that dark matter re-enters kinetic equilibrium with a radiation bath after kinetic decoupling, a scenario we dub kinetic recoupling. This naturally occurs,…
Constraints on sub-terrestrial free-floating planets from Subaru microlensing observations
William DeRocco, Nolan Smyth, Stefano Profumo
The abundance of protoplanetary bodies ejected from their parent star system is presently poorly-constrained. With only two existing optical observations of interstellar objects in…
