Andromeda XXV -- a dwarf galaxy with a low central dark matter density
Emily J. E. Charles, Michelle L. M. Collins, R. Michael Rich +7
Andromeda (And) XXV has previously been reported as a dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) with little-to-no dark matter. However, the uncertainties on this result were significant. In t…
Streams on FIRE: Populations of Detectable Stellar Streams in the Milky Way and FIRE
Nora Shipp, Nondh Panithanpaisal, Lina Necib +18
We present the first detailed study comparing the populations of stellar streams in cosmological simulations to observed Milky Way dwarf galaxy streams. In particular, we compare s…
Snowmass2021 Cosmic Frontier White Paper: Cosmological Simulations for Dark Matter Physics
Arka Banerjee, Kimberly K. Boddy, Francis-Yan Cyr-Racine +15
Over the past several decades, unexpected astronomical discoveries have been fueling a new wave of particle model building and are inspiring the next generation of ever-more-sophis…
Snowmass2021: Vera C. Rubin Observatory as a Flagship Dark Matter Experiment
Yao-Yuan Mao, Annika H. G. Peter, Susmita Adhikari +30
Establishing that Vera C. Rubin Observatory is a flagship dark matter experiment is an essential pathway toward understanding the physical nature of dark matter. In the past two de…
Snowmass2021 Cosmic Frontier White Paper: Dark Matter Physics from Halo Measurements
Keith Bechtol, Simon Birrer, Francis-Yan Cyr-Racine +41
The non-linear process of cosmic structure formation produces gravitationally bound overdensities of dark matter known as halos. The abundances, density profiles, ellipticities, an…
EDGE: the puzzling ellipticity of Eridanus II's star cluster and its implications for dark matter at the heart of an ultra-faint dwarf
Matthew D. A. Orkney, Justin I. Read, Oscar Agertz +6
The Eridanus II (EriII) 'ultra-faint' dwarf has a large () and low mass () star cluster (SC) offset from its centre by $23\pm3\,\text{…
