Semi-analytic Inference of Satellite Densities in the Cold Dark Matter Model Part II. Implications for Dark Matter Indirect Detection Constraints

Kailash Raman, Dylan Folsom, Manoj Kaplinghat +2

Dwarf galaxies provide excellent targets to search for signals of dark matter annihilation or decay. Using a calibrated semi-analytic model and the latest stellar kinematic data (p…

Semi-analytic Inference of Satellite Densities in the Cold Dark Matter Model Part I. Comparison to Ultra-faint Dwarf Kinematics

Kailash Raman, Dylan Folsom, Manoj Kaplinghat +2

Ultra-faint dwarf galaxies are critical testing grounds for probing the limits of galaxy formation in the cold dark matter (CDM) paradigm. Employing a semi-analytic cosmological sa…

Mergers Matter: Gravothermal Collapse in Dwarf Halos with Self-Interacting Dark Matter

Maya Silverman, Abdelaziz Hussein, Arpit Arora +8

Self-Interacting Dark Matter (SIDM) models with large cross sections at relative velocities below can be tested with dwarf galaxy observations. We ana…

Survival of the most compact: the life and death of satellite halos in self-interacting dark matter

David Klemmer, Moritz S. Fischer, Kimberly K. Boddy +2

Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) models feature short-range interactions between dark matter (DM) particles that lead to larger diversity in the inner parts of galactic rotation…

The Preference for Evolving Dark Energy from Cosmological Distance Measurements and Possible Signatures in the Growth Rate of Perturbations

Ryan E. Keeley, Kevork N. Abazajian, Manoj Kaplinghat +1

In this study, we use a flexible parametrization of the equation of state of dark energy to explore its possible evolution with datasets from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrume…

Theoretical Predictions for the Inner Dark Matter Distribution in the Milky Way Informed by Simulations

Abdelaziz Hussein, Lina Necib, Manoj Kaplinghat +5

We build a theoretical range for the Milky Way's (MW) inner dark matter (DM) distribution informed by the FIRE-2, Auriga, VINTERGATAN-GM, and TNG50 simulation suites assuming the c…
