Bose‐Einstein Condensate Dark Matter Halos Confronted with Galactic Rotation Curves

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
We present a comparative confrontation of both the Bose‐Einstein Condensate (BEC) and the Navarro‐Frenk‐White (NFW) dark halo models with galactic rotation curves. We employ 6 High Surface Brightness (HSB), 6 Low Surface Brightness (LSB), and 7 dwarf galaxies with rotation curves falling into two classes.

Detecting Multiplanetary Systems with Gravitational Microlensing and the Roman Space Telescope

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
It is plausible that most of the Stars in the Milky Way Galaxy, like the Sun, consist of planetary systems, instead of a single planet. Out of the estimately discovered 3980 planet-hosting stars, about 860 of them are known to be multiplanetary systems ...

Estimating Finite Source Effects in Microlensing Events due to Free‐Floating Planets with the Euclid Survey

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
In recent years free‐floating planets (FFPs) have drawn a great interest among astrophysicists. Gravitational microlensing is a unique and exclusive method for their investigation which may allow obtaining precious information about their mass and spatial distribution.

OGLE-2019-BLG-1180Lb: Discovery of a Wide-orbit Jupiter-mass Planet around a Late-type Star

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We report on the discovery and analysis of the planetary microlensing event OGLE-2019-BLG-1180 with a planet-to-star mass ratio q ∼ 0.003. The event OGLE-2019-BLG-1180 has unambiguous cusp-passing and caustic-crossing anomalies, which were caused by a ...

Possibility of Detection of Exomoons with Inclined Orbits Orbiting Pulsar Planets Using the Time‐of‐Arrival Analysis

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The perturbation caused by planet‐moon binarity on the time‐of‐arrival (TOA) signal of a pulsar with an orbiting planet is derived for the case of the orbit of the planet‐moon system inclined of an angle α with respect to the plane of the orbit of the planet‐moon barycenter around the pulsar.

Two Micron‐Size Dark Dimensions

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Two extra dimensions of micron scale might simultaneously address the gauge and cosmological hierarchy problems. In this paper various observational bounds in scenarios with one and two large extra dimensions are examined, to see if they are compatible with the micron scale.

Astronomical Signatures of Dark Matter

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Several independent astronomical observations in different wavelength bands reveal the existence of much larger quantities of matter than what we would deduce from assuming a solar mass to light ratio. They are very high velocities of individual galaxies within clusters of galaxies, higher than expected rotation rates of stars in the outer regions of ...
