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…
Strong constraints on thermal relic dark matter from Fermi-LAT observations of the Galactic Center
Kevork N. Abazajian, Shunsaku Horiuchi, Manoj Kaplinghat +2
The extended excess toward the Galactic Center (GC) in gamma rays inferred from Fermi-LAT observations has been interpreted as being due to dark matter (DM) annihilation. Here, we…
Signatures of Self-Interacting Dark Matter in the Matter Power Spectrum and the CMB
Ran Huo, Manoj Kaplinghat, Zhen Pan +1
We consider a self-interacting dark matter model in which the massive dark photon mediating the self-interaction decays to light dark fermions to avoid over-closing the universe. W…
US Cosmic Visions: New Ideas in Dark Matter 2017: Community Report
Marco Battaglieri, Alberto Belloni, Aaron Chou +248
This white paper summarizes the workshop "U.S. Cosmic Visions: New Ideas in Dark Matter" held at University of Maryland on March 23-25, 2017.
Hidden Sector Hydrogen as Dark Matter: Small-scale Structure Formation Predictions and the Importance of Hyperfine Interactions
Kimberly K. Boddy, Manoj Kaplinghat, Anna Kwa +1
We study the atomic physics and the astrophysical implications of a model in which the dark matter is the analog of hydrogen in a secluded sector. The self interactions between dar…
Direct Detection Signatures of Self-Interacting Dark Matter with a Light Mediator
Eugenio Del Nobile, Manoj Kaplinghat, Hai-Bo Yu
Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) is a simple and well-motivated scenario that could explain long-standing puzzles in structure formation on small scales. If the required self-in…
