Microlensing and dynamical constraints on primordial black hole dark matter with an extended mass function (2016)
Journal Article
Green, A. M. (in press). Microlensing and dynamical constraints on primordial black hole dark matter with an extended mass function. Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology, 94, Article 063530. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.94.063530

The recent discovery of gravitational waves from mergers of ?10 M? black hole binaries has stimulated interested in primordial black hole (PBH) dark matter in this mass range. Microlensing and dynamical constraints exclude all of the dark matter in c...

How to calculate dark matter direct detection exclusion limits that are consistent with gamma rays from annihilation in the Milky Way halo (2016)
Journal Article
Cerdeno, D. G., Fornasa, M., Green, A. M., & Peiro, M. (2016). How to calculate dark matter direct detection exclusion limits that are consistent with gamma rays from annihilation in the Milky Way halo. Physical Review D, 94, Article 043516. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.94.043516

When comparing constraints on the weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) properties from direct and indirect detection experiments it is crucial that the assumptions made about the dark matter (DM) distribution are realistic and consistent. For i... Read More about How to calculate dark matter direct detection exclusion limits that are consistent with gamma rays from annihilation in the Milky Way halo.

A review of the discovery reach of directional Dark Matter detection (2016)
Journal Article
Mayet, F., Green, A. M., Battat, J., Billard, J., Bozorgnia, N., Gelmini, G., …Vahsen, S. (2016). A review of the discovery reach of directional Dark Matter detection. Physics Reports, 627, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physrep.2016.02.007

Cosmological observations indicate that most of the matter in the Universe is Dark Matter. Dark Matter in the form of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) can be detected directly, via its elastic scattering off target nuclei. Most current di...
