Sensitivity Estimation for Dark Matter Subhalos in Synthetic Gaia DR2 using Deep Learning

Abdullah Bazarov, María Benito, Gert Hütsi +3

The abundance of dark matter (DM) subhalos orbiting a host galaxy is a generic prediction of the cosmological framework, and is a promising way to constrain the nature of DM. In th…

Cooling process of brown dwarfs in Palatini f(R) gravity

María Benito, Aneta Wojnar

We present an analytical model for the evolution of brown dwarfs in quadratic Palatini f(R) gravity. We improve previous studies by adopting a more realistic description of the par…

Uncertainties in the Galactic dark matter distribution: an update

Maria Benito, Fabio Iocco, Alessandro Cuoco

We present here a quantitative, accurate estimate of the impact of uncertainties of astrophysical nature on the determination of the dark matter distribution within our Galaxy, the…

Tidal forces from the wake of dynamical friction: warps, lopsidedness and kinematic misalignment

Rain Kipper, María Benito, Peeter Tenjes +2

A galaxy moving through a background of dark matter particles, induces an overdensity of these particles or a wake behind it. The back reaction of this wake on the galaxy is a forc…

Sensitivity of the Cherenkov Telescope Array to a dark matter signal from the Galactic centre

The Cherenkov Telescope Array Consortium, :, A. Acharyya +449

We provide an updated assessment of the power of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) to search for thermally produced dark matter at the TeV scale, via the associated gamma-ray sig…

Implications of Milky Way Substructures for the Nature of Dark Matter

María Benito, Juan Carlos Criado, Gert Hütsi +2

We study how the indirect observation of dark matter substructures in the Milky Way, using recent stellar stream studies, translates into constraints for different dark matter mode…
