Lyα forest bounds on sterile neutrino production via neutrino self-interactions
Priyank Parashari, Vera Gluscevic, Yue Zhang +3
Sterile neutrinos in the keV mass range have long been considered a well-motivated dark matter (DM) candidate. In this work, we explore a sterile neutrino production mechanism thro…
The Simons Observatory: forecasted constraints on primordial gravitational waves with the expanded array of Small Aperture Telescopes
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, I. Abril-Cabezas, S. Adachi +479
We present updated forecasts for the scientific performance of the degree-scale (0.5 deg FWHM at 93 GHz), deep-field survey to be conducted by the Simons Observatory (SO). By 2027,…
Fresh Look at Neutrino Self-Interactions With the Lyman- Forest: Constraints from EFT and PRIYA Simulations
Adam He, Mikhail M. Ivanov, Simeon Bird +2
We present the first search for evidence of neutrino self-interaction with two new, state-of-the-art likelihoods for eBOSS Lyman- data. These are an effective field theory (EFT…
The Simons Observatory: Science Goals and Forecasts for the Enhanced Large Aperture Telescope
The Simons Observatory Collaboration, M. Abitbol, I. Abril-Cabezas +419
We describe updated scientific goals for the wide-field, millimeter-wave survey that will be produced by the Simons Observatory (SO). Significant upgrades to the 6-meter SO Large A…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: DR6 Constraints on Extended Cosmological Models
Erminia Calabrese, J. Colin Hill, Hidde T. Jense +169
We use new cosmic microwave background (CMB) primary temperature and polarization anisotropy measurements from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) Data Release 6 (DR6) to test fo…
Bounds on Velocity-Dependent Dark Matter-Baryon Scattering from Large-Scale Structure
Adam He, Mikhail M. Ivanov, Rui An +2
We explore interacting dark matter (DM) models that allow DM and baryons to scatter off of each other with a cross section that scales with relative particle velocity. Using the ef…
