Journal Article

With positive signals from multiple direct detection experiments, it will, in principle, be possible to measure the mass and cross sections of weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter. Recent work has shown that, with a polynomial param... Read More about Probing WIMP particle physics and astrophysics with direct detection and neutrino telescope data.

WIMP physics with ensembles of direct-detection experiments (2014)
Journal Article
Peter, A. H., Glusevic, V., Green, A. M., Kavanagh, B. J., & Lee, S. L. (2014). WIMP physics with ensembles of direct-detection experiments. Physics of the Dark Universe, 5-6, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dark.2014.10.006

The search for weakly-interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter is multi-pronged. Ulti- mately, the WIMP-dark-matter picture will only be confirmed if different classes of experiments see consistent signals and infer the same WIMP properties. I...

Self-consistent phase-space distribution function for the anisotropic dark matter halo of the Milky Way (2014)
Journal Article
Fornasa, M., & Green, A. M. (2014). Self-consistent phase-space distribution function for the anisotropic dark matter halo of the Milky Way. Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology, 89(6), Article 063531. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.89.063531

Dark Matter (DM) direct detection experiments usually assume the simplest possible ‘Standard Halo Model’ for the Milky Way (MW) halo in which the velocity distribution is Maxwellian. This model assumes that the MW halo is an isotropic, isothermal sph... Read More about Self-consistent phase-space distribution function for the anisotropic dark matter halo of the Milky Way.
