  6. By type of equations of motion:Do you behave like a SUSY WIMP Sterile neutrino Axions Fuzzy/ultralight DM Primordial black holes (MaCHOs)

  7. By how it interacts with us and/or itself: Cold Dark Matter is: Not relativistic (stays put, unlike my child) Doesn’t interact with anyone or anything (unlike my child) Totally stable (sense a theme?)

  8. By how it interacts with us and/or itself: “halo” Cold Dark Matter is: Not relativistic (stays put, unlike my child) Doesn’t interact with anyone or anything (unlike my child) Totally stable (sense a theme?) Halos all the way down… Image credit: V. Springel, MPA

  9. By how it interacts with us and/or itself: Halo mass scale where CDM is a BAD fit Buckley & AP, 1712.06615 Low Interaction w/Standard Model High

  11. By how it interacts with us and/or itself Early-time effects (warmness, large de Broglie wavelength)—Halo abundance Late-time effects (decays, self-interactions)— Halo shape Halo mass scale where CDM is a BAD fit Buckley & AP, 1712.06615 Low Interaction w/Standard Model High Lab + astrophysics

  23. Pathways to detection

  24. Fuzzy dark matter Ultra-light dark matter (axions; e.g., Hu+ 2000, Hui+ 2016) m ~ 10-22 eV The larger the de Broglie wavelength, the bigger the core, and the fewer the small halos. Schive+ 2014 See talks by Kfir Blum, Scott Tremaine @2019 PCTS workshop

  25. Fuzzy dark matter Requirements to make cores Wasserman+ 1905.10373: m= 3x10-22 eV Van Dokkum+ 2016 Dragonfly 44 Robles+ 1807.06018

  26. Fuzzy dark matter Requirements to make enough satellites Segue I and ~50 of its Milky Way friends (image credit: M. Geha) Drlica-Wagner+ 2015 DES; see Pan-Starrs, ATLAS, HSC-SSP survey papers

  31. Pathways to detection

  32. Axions and the Sun Sikivie 1983 http://www.int.washington.edu/talks/WorkShops/int_12_50W/People/Ruz_J/Ruz.pdf Good constraints because we know the physics of stars so well. From Drlica-Wagner+ LSST DM paper 1902.01055

  33. Plain old WIMPs: main-sequence stars

  34. Plain old WIMPs: main-sequence stars It’s a trap!: capture by elastic scattering. Energy injection (annihilation). Extra source of heat conduction (can be non-local).

  35. Plain old WIMPs: main-sequence stars Everything old is new again. Galactic Center Asymmetric DM+ Sun First stars Lopes, Silk, Taoso Scott+ 0809.1871 Freese, Bromm, Gondolo… NASA/SDO Stacy+ 2013

  36. Plain old WIMPs: compact objects Dark matter Neutron star

  37. Plain old WIMPs: compact objects Dark matter Neutron star Bonk

  38. Plain old WIMPs: compact objects Kinetic energy from dark matter means there’s a lower limit for temperature of thermal radiation from nearby neutron stars…a subject for JWST. Baryakhtar, Bramante, Li, Linden, Raj 1704.01577 Go Bucks!

  39. Plain old WIMPs: be careful about interpretation See talk by Chris Cappiello (OSU) on Thursday Digman+ incl. AP, 1907.10618

  40. Pathways to detection (Kerstin’s talk)

  41. Takeaways for astrophysical measurement of dark matter physics

  42. Astrophysicists’ particle classification Small de Broglie wavelength Big Early Universe behavior affects abundance of halos overdensity r Cold (non-relativistic) Warm Hot (relativistic) Early Universe---typical velocity at creation epoch (or de Broglie wavelength)

  43. Astrophysicists’ particle classification Late-time effects on halo morphology Self –Interacting Dark Matter (Core collapse) Elbert+ incl. AP 1412.1477
