Macroscopic dark matter constraints for extended mass functions
Zachary S. C. Picker, Andrew Buchanan, Melissa Diamond +1
We compile and recompute a subset of the landscape of constraints for macroscopic dark matter (macros), explicitly including the dependence on the fraction of dark matter in macros…
Deconstructive Composite Dark Matter Detection
Yilda Boukhtouchen, Joseph Bramante, Christopher Cappiello +1
We investigate the detection of composite dark matter that disassembles into a cascade while crossing the Earth. This occurs for loosely bound composite dark matter, where the bind…
Dimming Starlight with Dark Compact Objects
Joseph Bramante, Melissa D. Diamond, J. Leo Kim
We demonstrate a new technique to search for dark compact objects. When dark matter comprising a dark compact object interacts with photons, the compact object can disperse light t…
Dissipative Dark Cosmology: From Early Matter Dominance to Delayed Compact Objects
Joseph Bramante, Christopher V. Cappiello, Melissa D. Diamond +3
We demonstrate a novel mechanism for producing dark compact objects and black holes through a dark sector, where all the dark matter can be dissipative. Heavy dark sector particles…
