Effect on Dark Matter Exclusion Limits from New Silicon Photoelectric Absorption Measurements

Kavli Affiliate: Blas Cabrera | First 5 Authors: Belina von Krosigk, Matthew J. Wilson, Chris Stanford, Blas Cabrera, Robert Calkins | Summary: Recent breakthroughs in cryogenic silicon detector technology allow for the observation of single electron-hole pairs released via particle interactions within the target material. This implies sensitivity to energy depositions as low as the […]

Hierarchical Inference With Bayesian Neural Networks: An Application to Strong Gravitational Lensing

Kavli Affiliate: Philip J. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Sebastian Wagner-Carena, Ji Won Park, Simon Birrer, Philip J. Marshall, Aaron Roodman | Summary: In the past few years, approximate Bayesian Neural Networks (BNNs) have demonstrated the ability to produce statistically consistent posteriors on a wide range of inference problems at unprecedented speed and scale. However, […]

Dark Matter Interpretation of the Fermi-LAT Observations Toward the Outer Halo of M31

Kavli Affiliate: Igor Moskalenko | First 5 Authors: Chris Karwin, Simona Murgia, Igor Moskalenko, Sean Fillingham, Anne-Katherine Burns | Summary: An excess $gamma$-ray signal toward the outer halo of M31 has recently been reported. Although other explanations are plausible, the possibility that it arises from dark matter (DM) is valid. In this work we interpret […]

The effects of turbulence on galactic nuclear gas rings

Kavli Affiliate: R. Morris | First 5 Authors: Jesus M. Salas, Smadar Naoz, Mark R. Morris, , | Summary: The gas dynamics in the inner few kiloparsecs of barred galaxies often results in configurations that give rise to nuclear gas rings. However, the generic dynamical description of the formation of galactic nuclear rings does not […]

Searching for New Interactions at Sub-micron Scale Using the Mossbauer Effect

Kavli Affiliate: Giorgio Gratta | First 5 Authors: Giorgio Gratta, David E. Kaplan, Surjeet Rajendran, , | Summary: A new technique to search for new scalar and tensor interactions at the sub-micrometer scale is presented. The technique relies on small shifts of nuclear gamma lines produced by the coupling between matter and the nuclei in […]
