Measurement of anisotropy of dark matter velocity distribution using directional detection

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
Although the velocity distribution of dark matter is assumed to be generally isotropic, some studies have found that ~25% of the distribution can have anisotropic components.

Caustics, Cold Flows, and Annual Modulation [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 2011
We discuss the formation of dark matter caustics, and their possible detection by future dark matter experiments. The annual modulation expected in the recoil rate measured by a dark matter detector is discussed.

Les Houches Lectures on Indirect Detection of Dark Matter

open access: yesSciPost Physics Lecture Notes, 2022
These lectures, presented at the 2021 Les Houches Summer School on Dark Matter, provide an introduction to key methods and tools of indirect dark matter searches, as well as a status report on the field circa summer 2021.

How does dark matter affect compact star properties and high density constraints of strongly interacting matter [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
We study the impact of asymmetric bosonic dark matter on neutron star properties, including possible changes of tidal deformability, maximum mass, radius, and matter distribution inside the star.

Dark Matter direct detection of classical WIMPs

open access: yesSciPost Physics Lecture Notes, 2022
One of the highest priorities in particle physics today is the identification of the constituents of dark matter. This manuscript is a supplement to pedagogical lectures given at the 2021 Les Houches Summer School on Dark Matter.

Magellan/M2FS and MMT/Hectochelle Spectroscopy of Dwarf Galaxies and Faint Star Clusters within the Galactic Halo

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We present spectroscopic data for 16,369 stellar targets within and/or toward 38 dwarf spheroidal galaxies and faint star clusters within the Milky Way halo environment.

Indirect Evidence for Dark Matter Density Spikes around Stellar-mass Black Holes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
It has been suggested for a long time that dark matter would form a density spike around a black hole. However, no promising evidence has been observed so far to verify this theoretical suggestion.

Under the Firelight: Stellar Tracers of the Local Dark Matter Velocity Distribution in the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Gaia era opens new possibilities for discovering the remnants of disrupted satellite galaxies in the Solar neighborhood. If the population of local accreted stars is correlated with the dark matter sourced by the same mergers, one can then map the ...

Imprint of Pressure on Characteristic Dark Matter Profiles: The Case of ESO0140040

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
We investigate the dark matter distribution in the spiral galaxy ESO0140040, employing the most widely used density profiles: the pseudo-isothermal, exponential sphere, Burkert, Navarro-Frenk-White, Moore and Einasto profiles.

Experimental identification of non-pointlike dark-matter candidates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We show that direct dark matter detection experiments can distinguish between pointlike and non-pointlike dark-matter candidates. The shape of the nuclear recoil energy spectrum from pointlike dark-matter particles, e.g., neutralinos, is determined by ...
