New Constraints on the Mass of Fermionic Dark Matter from Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

1 code implementation7 Oct 2020 James Alvey, Nashwan Sabti, Victoria Tiki, Diego Blas, Kyrylo Bondarenko, Alexey Boyarsky, Miguel Escudero, Malcolm Fairbairn, Matthew Orkney, Justin I. Read

In this work, we review, revise and improve upon previous phase-space considerations to obtain lower bounds on the mass of fermionic dark matter particles.

Dark Matter Subhalos, Strong Lensing and Machine Learning

no code implementations11 May 2020 Sreedevi Varma, Malcolm Fairbairn, Julio Figueroa

We investigate the possibility of applying machine learning techniques to images of strongly lensed galaxies to detect a low mass cut-off in the spectrum of dark matter sub-halos within the lens system.

Physics from solar neutrinos in dark matter direct detection experiments

1 code implementation4 Apr 2016 David G. Cerdeno, Malcolm Fairbairn, Thomas Jubb, Pedro A. N. Machado, Aaron C. Vincent, Celine Boehm

In this article, we compute the projected nuclear and electron recoil rates expected in several dark matter direct detection experiments due to solar neutrinos, and use these estimates to quantify errors on future measurements of the neutrino fluxes, weak mixing angle and solar observables, as well as to constrain new physics in the neutrino sector.
