Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Yue Pan, Anirudh Chiti, Alex Drlica-Wagner, Alexander P. Ji, Ting S. Li | Summary: We conducted an in-depth analysis of candidate member stars located in the peripheries of three ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxy satellites of the Milky Way: Bo"otes I (Boo1), Bo"otes II (Boo2), and Segue […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Tariq Hilmi, Denis Erkal, Sergey E. Koposov, Ting S. Li, Sophia Lilleengen | Summary: In the cold dark matter paradigm, our Galaxy is predicted to contain >10000 dark matter subhaloes in the $10^5-10^8M_odot$ range which should be completely devoid of stars. Stellar streams are sensitive to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Cari Cesarotti, Gordan Krnjaic, , , | Summary: We study future lepton collider prospects for testing predictive models of leptophilic dark matter candidates with a thermal origin. We calculate experimental milestones for testing the parameter space compatible with freeze-out and the associated collider signals at past, present, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Amanda M. Farah, Thomas A. Callister, Jose María Ezquiaga, Michael Zevin, Daniel E. Holz | Summary: Gravitational waves from merging compact objects encode direct information about the luminosity distance to the binary. When paired with a redshift measurement, this enables standard-siren cosmology: a Hubble diagram can […]

Kavli Affiliate: Craig Hogan | First 5 Authors: Craig Hogan, , , , | Summary: Cosmic structure on the largest scales preserves the pattern laid down by quantum fluctuations of gravity in the early universe on scales comparable to inflationary horizons. It is proposed here that fluctuations create physical correlations only within finite regions enclosed […]
