AMPM II. A Lunar-Mass Primordial Black Hole Microlensing Candidate in the Milky Way Halo

Renee Key, Edward N. Taylor, Ken C. Freeman +5

Primordial Black Holes (PBH) are hypothesised to form during inflation and have long been considered a candidate for compact dark matter. Gravitational microlensing is known as a p…

AMPM I. A Targeted Search for Asteroid Mass Primordial Black Hole Microlenses

Renee Key, Edward N. Taylor, Ken C. Freeman +5

Gravitational microlensing is a powerful technique for constraining the abundance of dark matter in asteroid mass to supermassive primordial black holes at masses of $-11 \lesssim…

Tidal adaptive softening and artificial fragmentation in cosmological simulations

Robert A. Mostoghiu Paun, Darren Croton, Chris Power +3

Traditional N-body methods introduce localised perturbations in the gravitational forces governing their evolution. These perturbations lead to an artificial fragmentation in the f…

A Geometric Calibration of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch in the Milky Way using Gaia DR3

M. Dixon, J. Mould, C. Flynn +3

We use the latest parallaxes measurements from Gaia DR3 to obtain a geometric calibration of the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) in Cousins magnitudes as a standard candle f…

Prospective Dark Matter Annihilation Signals From the Sagittarius Dwarf Spheroidal

Thomas A. A. Venville, Alan R. Duffy, Roland M. Crocker +2

The Sagittarius Dwarf Spheroidal galaxy (Sgr) is investigated as a target for DM annihilation searches utilising J-factor distributions calculated directly from a high-resolution h…

Gusts in the Headwind: Uncertainties in Direct Dark Matter Detection

Grace E. Lawrence, Alan R. Duffy, Chris A. Blake +1

We use high-resolution, hydrodynamic, galaxy simulations from the Latte suite of FIRE-2 simulations to investigate the inherent variation of dark matter in sub-sampled regions arou…
