Weighing the Dark Matter Halo
The dark matter problem will be solved only when all of the dark matter is accounted for. Although wimps may be discovered in direct detection experiments soon, we will not know what fraction of the dark matter halo they compose until we measure their local density. In this talk, I will offer a novel method to determine the mass of a wimp from direct detection experiments alone using kinematica...
متن کاملDid VV 29 collide with a dark Dark-Matter halo?
Westerbork Radio Synthesis Telescope observation of the galaxy VV 29=Arp 188=UGC 10214 shows that there are at least three distinct dynamical components whose kinematics can be traced in 21cm line emission. The system appears to be the result of a galaxy-galaxy interaction. We identify a sufficient number of dynamical elements containing baryons (stars and neutral gas) that there is no compelli...
متن کاملMicrolensing and halo cold dark matter.
We discuss the implications of the more than 50 microlensing events seen by the EROS, MACHO, and OGLE collaborations for the composition of the halo of our galaxy. The event rates indicate that the halo mass fraction in MACHO’s is less than 30%, consistent with expectations for a universe whose primary component is cold dark matter. We caution that the uncertainties are such that a larger MACHO...
متن کاملDark Matter Properties and Halo Central Densities
Using an analytic model calibrated against numerical simulations, we calculate the central densities of dark matter halos in a “conventional” cold dark matter model with a cosmological constant (LCDM) and in a “tilted” model (TLCDM) with slightly modified parameters motivated by recent analyses of Lyα forest data. We also calculate how warm dark matter (WDM) would modify these predicted densiti...
متن کاملDark Matter Halo Mergers and Quasars
DARK MATTER HALO MERGERS AND QUASARS Jorge Moreno Ravi Sheth, Advisor The formation and evolution of galaxies and the supermassive black holes they harbor at their nuclei depends strongly on the merger history of their surrounding dark matter haloes. First we developed a semi-analytic algorithm that describes the merger history tree of a halo. The following tests were performed: the conditional...
