A robust mass estimator for dark matter subhalo perturbations in strong gravitational lenses
Quinn E. Minor, Manoj Kaplinghat, Nan Li
A few dark matter substructures have recently been detected in strong gravitational lenses though their perturbations of highly magnified images. We derive a characteristic scale f…
How the Self-Interacting Dark Matter Model Explains the Diverse Galactic Rotation Curves
Ayuki Kamada, Manoj Kaplinghat, Andrew B. Pace +1
The rotation curves of spiral galaxies exhibit a diversity that has been difficult to understand in the cold dark matter (CDM) paradigm. We show that the self-interacting dark matt…
A Testable Conspiracy: Simulating Baryonic Effects on Self-Interacting Dark Matter Halos
Oliver D. Elbert, James S. Bullock, Manoj Kaplinghat +3
We investigate the response of self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) halos to the growth of galaxy potentials using idealized simulations, each run in tandem with standard collisionl…
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…
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…
