Probing the Fundamental Nature of Dark Matter with the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope
Alex Drlica-Wagner, Yao-Yuan Mao, Susmita Adhikari +97
Astrophysical and cosmological observations currently provide the only robust, empirical measurements of dark matter. Future observations with Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST…
Splashback in accreting dark matter halos
Susmita Adhikari, Neal Dalal, Robert T. Chamberlain
Recent work has shown that density profiles in the outskirts of dark matter halos can become extremely steep over a narrow range of radius. This behavior is produced by splashback…
Three-point galaxy-galaxy lensing as a probe of dark matter halo shapes
Susmita Adhikari, Chun Yin Ricky Chue, Neal Dalal
We propose a method to measure the ellipticities of dark matter halos using the lens-shear-shear 3-point correlation function. This method is immune to effects of galaxy-halo misal…
