A first estimate of the Milky Way dark matter halo spin [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2021
The spin, or normalized angular momentumλ, of dark matter halos in cosmological simulations follows a log normal distribution and has little correlation with galaxy observables such as stellar masses or sizes. There is currently no way to infer theλparameter of individual halos hosting observed galaxies.

Building an Acceleration Ladder with Tidal Streams and Pulsar Timing

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We analyse stellar streams in action-angle coordinates combined with recent local direct acceleration measurements to provide joint constraints on the potential of our galaxy.

Search for dark matter candidates and large extra dimensions in events with a jet and missing transverse momentum with the ATLAS detector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A search for new phenomena in events with a high-energy jet and large missing transverse momentum is performed using data from proton-proton collisions at √s=7 TeV with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider.

Warm dark matter constraints using Milky Way satellite observations and subhalo evolution modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Warm dark matter (WDM) can potentially explain small-scale observations that currently challenge the cold dark matter (CDM) model, as warm particles suppress structure formation due to free-streaming effects.

Structure, Kinematics, and Observability of the Large Magellanic Cloud’s Dynamical Friction Wake in Cold versus Fuzzy Dark Matter

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) will induce a dynamical friction (DF) wake on infall to the Milky Way (MW). The MW’s stellar halo will respond to the gravity of the LMC and the dark matter (DM) wake, forming a stellar counterpart to the DM wake.

Overview of the DESI Milky Way Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We describe the Milky Way Survey (MWS) that will be undertaken with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) on the Mayall 4 m telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory.

The Milky Way’s halo and subhaloes in self-interacting dark matter [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
ABSTRACT We perform high-resolution simulations of an MW-like galaxy in a self-interacting cold dark matter model with elastic cross-section over mass of $1~\rm cm^2\, g^{-1}$ (SIDM) and compare to a model without self-interactions (CDM).

DISPERSAL OF TIDAL DEBRIS IN A MILKY-WAY-SIZED DARK MATTER HALO [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT We simulate the tidal disruption of a collisionless N-body globular star cluster in a total of 300 different orbits selected to have galactocentric radii between 10 and 30 kpc in four dark matter halos: (a) a spherical halo with no subhalos, (b) a spherical halo with subhalos, (c) a realistic halo with no subhalos, and (d) a ...
