Captures of Hot and Warm Sterile Antineutrino Dark Matter on EC-decaying Ho-163 Nuclei [PDF]
Capturing low-energy electron antineutrinos on radioactive Ho-163 nuclei, which decay into Dy-163 via electron capture (EC), is a noteworthy opportunity to detect relic sterile antineutrinos.

Dark Matter Halo Merger Histories Beyond Cold Dark Matter: I - Methods and Application to Warm Dark Matter [PDF]
We describe a methodology to accurately compute halo mass functions, progenitor mass functions, merger rates and merger trees in non-cold dark matter universes using a self-consistent treatment of the generalized extended Press-Schechter formalism.

Warm Dark Matter versus Bumpy Power Spectra [PDF]
In this paper we are exploring the differences between a Warm Dark Matter model and a CDM model where the power on a certain scale is reduced by introducing a narrow negative feature ("dip").

Warm dark matter chills out: constraints on the halo mass function and the free-streaming length of dark matter with eight quadruple-image strong gravitational lenses [PDF]
The free-streaming length of dark matter depends on fundamental dark matter physics, and determines the abundance and concentration of dark matter haloes on sub-galactic scales.

Indistinguishability of Warm Dark Matter, Modified Gravity, and Coupled Cold Dark Matter [PDF]
The current accelerated expansion of our universe could be due to an unknown energy component with negative pressure (dark energy) or a modification to general relativity (modified gravity).

Warm Dark Matter Sterile Neutrinos in Electron Capture and Beta Decay Spectra [PDF]
We briefly review the motivation to search for sterile neutrinos in the keV mass scale, as dark matter candidates, and the prospects to find them in beta decay or electron capture spectra, with a global perspective.

Free streaming in warm wave dark matter [PDF]
We provide a framework for numerically computing the effects of free-streaming in scalar fields produced after inflation. First, we provide a detailed prescription for setting up initial conditions in the field. This prescription allows us to specify the

REIONIZATION IN THE WARM DARK MATTER MODEL [PDF]
Compared with the cold dark matter (CDM) model, in the warm dark matter (WDM) model formation of small scale structure is suppressed. It is often thought that this would delay the reionization of the intergalactic medium (IGM), as the star formation rate during the epoch of reionization (EOR) would be lowered. However, during the later stage of the EOR,

Early galaxy formation in warm dark matter cosmologies [PDF]
We present a framework for high-redshift ($z \geq 7$) galaxy formation that traces their dark matter (DM) and baryonic assembly in four cosmologies: Cold Dark Matter (CDM) and Warm Dark Matter (WDM) with particle masses of $m_x =$ 1.5, 3 and 5 ${\rm keV}$
