Impact of dark matter decays and annihilations on structure formation
E. Ripamonti, M. Mapelli
We derived the influence of dark matter (DM) decays and annihilations on structure formation. The energy deposited by DM decays and annihilations into metal free halos both increas…
Impact of dark matter on reionization and heating
M. Mapelli, E. Ripamonti
We derived the evolution of the energy deposition in the intergalactic medium (IGM) by different decaying (or annihilating) dark matter (DM) candidates. Heavy annihilating DM parti…
Extragalactic Background Light: new constraints from the study of the photon-photon absorption on blazar spectra
M. Mapelli, R. Salvaterra, A. Ferrara
The study of the Extragalactic Background Light (EBL) is crucial to understand many astrophysical problems (as the formation of first stars, the evolution of galaxies and the role…
Gamma-ray constraints on the infrared background excess
M. Mapelli, R. Salvaterra, A. Ferrara
Motivated by the idea that the recently detected near-infrared (1.2-4 micron) excess over the contribution of known galaxies is due to redshifted light from the first cosmic stars…
