Estimating the local dark matter density in a non-axisymmetric wobbling disc

S. Sivertsson, J. I. Read, H. Silverwood +6

The density of dark matter near the Sun is important for experiments hunting for dark matter particles in the laboratory, and for constraining the local shape of the Milky Way's da…

A new determination of the local dark matter density from the kinematics of K dwarfs

Silvia Garbari, Chao Liu, Justin I. Read +1

We apply a new method to determine the local disc matter and dark halo matter density to kinematic and position data for \sim2000 K dwarf stars taken from the literature. Our metho…

Limits on the local density of dark matter

Silvia Garbari, Justin I. Read, George Lake

We study the systematic problems in determining the local dark matter density from kinematics of stars in the Solar Neighbourhood, using a simulated Milky Way-lik…

Limits on the local dark matter density

Silvia Garbari, Justin I. Read, George Lake

We revisit systematics in determining the local dark matter density (rho_dm) from the vertical motion of stars in the Solar Neighbourhood. Using a simulation of a Milky Way-like ga…

Measuring the local dark matter density

Silvia Garbari, George Lake, Justin I. Read

We examine systematic problems in determining the local matter density from the vertical motion of stars, i.e. the 'Oort limit'. Using collisionless simulations and a Monte Carlo M…
