Ubiquitous Corotation of Dark Matter Halos: Implications for Direct Detection

Dylan Folsom, Carlos Blanco, Mariangela Lisanti +1

Cosmological simulations have recently begun to quantify the halo-to-halo variance in the phase-space distribution of dark matter around the Sun. We use a sample of nearly one hund…

Semi-analytic Inference of Satellite Densities in the Cold Dark Matter Model Part II. Implications for Dark Matter Indirect Detection Constraints

Kailash Raman, Dylan Folsom, Manoj Kaplinghat +2

Dwarf galaxies provide excellent targets to search for signals of dark matter annihilation or decay. Using a calibrated semi-analytic model and the latest stellar kinematic data (p…

Semi-analytic Inference of Satellite Densities in the Cold Dark Matter Model Part I. Comparison to Ultra-faint Dwarf Kinematics

Kailash Raman, Dylan Folsom, Manoj Kaplinghat +2

Ultra-faint dwarf galaxies are critical testing grounds for probing the limits of galaxy formation in the cold dark matter (CDM) paradigm. Employing a semi-analytic cosmological sa…

Galactic Amnesia: The Information Washout of the Milky Way Merger History

Lina Necib, Dylan Folsom, Elliot Y. Davies +2

The merger history of a galaxy leaves imprints on its present-day stellar chemodynamics, yet dynamical processes progressively erase this record. We ask: how far back in time, and…

How to Build an Empirical Speed Distribution for Dark Matter in the Solar Neighborhood

Tal Shpigel, Dylan Folsom, Mariangela Lisanti +3

The dark matter flux in a direct detection experiment depends on its local speed distribution. This distribution has been inferred from simulations of Milky Way-like galaxies, but…

Dark Matter Velocity Distributions for Direct Detection: Astrophysical Uncertainties are Smaller Than They Appear

Dylan Folsom, Carlos Blanco, Mariangela Lisanti +3

The sensitivity of direct detection experiments depends on the phase-space distribution of dark matter near the Sun, which can be modeled theoretically using cosmological hydrodyna…

Cosmological Simulations of Stellar Halos with Gaia Sausage-Enceladus Analogues: Two Sausages, One Bun?

Dylan Folsom, Mariangela Lisanti, Lina Necib +3

Observations of the Milky Way's stellar halo find that it is predominantly comprised of a radially biased population of stars, dubbed the Gaia Sausage--Enceladus, or GSE. These sta…

Probabilistic Inference of the Structure and Orbit of Milky Way Satellites with Semi-Analytic Modeling

Dylan Folsom, Oren Slone, Mariangela Lisanti +2

Semi-analytic modeling furnishes an efficient avenue for characterizing the properties of dark matter halos associated with satellites of Milky Way-like systems, as it easily accou…
