Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Vinh Tran, Daniel Gilman, Mark Vogelsberger, Xuejian Shen, Stephanie O’Neil | Summary: We investigate a self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) model featuring a velocity-dependent cross section with an order-of-magnitude resonant enhancement of the cross section at $sim 16,{rm km},{rm s}^{-1}$. To understand the implications for the structure of […]
