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…

Isolated Binary Black Hole Formation and Merger Rates from Galaxy Evolution

Tyler B. Smith, Manoj Kaplinghat

The LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration has detected over 150 confirmed gravitational wave events through O4a. Binary black hole (BBH) systems represent the overwhelming majority…

Strong Evidence that the Galactic Bulge is Shining in Gamma Rays

Oscar Macias, Shunsaku Horiuchi, Manoj Kaplinghat +3

There is growing evidence that the Galactic Center Excess identified in the -LAT gamma-ray data arises from a population of faint astrophysical sources. We provide…

The Galactic Isotropic -ray Background and Implications for Dark Matter

Sheldon S. Campbell, Anna Kwa, Manoj Kaplinghat

We present an analysis of the radial angular profile of the galacto-isotropic (GI) -ray flux--the statistically uniform flux in circular annuli about the Galactic center. Two di…

Investigating the Uniformity of the Excess Gamma rays towards the Galactic Center Region

Shunsaku Horiuchi, Manoj Kaplinghat, Anna Kwa

We perform a composite likelihood analysis of subdivided regions within the central of the Milky Way, with the aim of characterizing the spectrum of the ga…

Discovery of a New Galactic Center Excess Consistent with Upscattered Starlight

Kevork N. Abazajian, Nicolas Canac, Shunsaku Horiuchi +2

We present a new extended gamma ray excess detected with the Fermi Satellite Large Area Telescope toward the Galactic Center that traces the morphology of infrared starlight emissi…
