The impact of going beyond the Maxwell distribution in direct dark matter detection rates
J. D. Vergados, S. H. Hansen, O. Host
We consider direct dark matter detection rates and investigate the difference between a standard Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution and a "realistic" distribution like the one…
Measuring the dark matter velocity anisotropy in galaxy clusters
Steen H. Hansen, Rocco Piffaretti
The Universe contains approximately 6 times more dark matter than normal baryonic matter, and a directly observed fundamental difference between dark matter and baryons would both…
What it takes to measure a fundamental difference between dark matter and baryons: the halo velocity anisotropy
Ole Host, Steen H Hansen
Numerous ongoing experiments aim at detecting WIMP dark matter particles from the galactic halo directly through WIMP-nucleon interactions. Once such a detection is established a c…
Searching for decaying axion-like dark matter from clusters of galaxies
Signe Riemer-Sorensen, Konstantin Zioutas, Steen H. Hansen +3
We consider the possibility of constraining the lifetime of radiatively decaying dark matter particles in clusters of galaxies inspired from generic axions of the Kaluza-Klein type…
The Accretion-Driven Structure and Kinematics of Relaxed Dark Halos
Guillermo González-Casado, Eduard Salvador-Solé, Alberto Manrique +1
It has recently been shown that relaxed spherically symmetric dark matter halos develop from the inside out, by permanently adapting their inner structure to the boundary condition…
The nature of dark matter and the density profile and central behavior of relaxed halos
Eduard Salvador-Solé, Alberto Manrique, Guillermo González-Casado +1
We show that the two basic assumptions of the model recently proposed by Manrique and coworkers for the universal density profile of cold dark matter (CDM) halos, namely that these…
