Constraints on Warm Dark Matter from Cosmological Reionization
We study the constraints that high-redshift structure formation in the universe places on warm dark matter (WDM) dominated cosmological models. We modify the extended Press-Schechter formalism to derive the halo mass function in WDM models. We show that our predictions agree with recent numerical simulations at low redshift over the halo masses of interest. Applying our model to galaxy formatio...
متن کاملCosmological constraints on Neutrino - Dark Matter interactions
I summarize the results of a recent analysis where the cosmological effects of interactions of neutrinos with cold Dark Matter (DM) is investigated. This interaction produces diffusion-damped oscillations in the matter power spectrum, analogous to the acoustic oscillations in the baryon-photon fluid. I discuss the bounds from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey on the corresponding opacity defined as ...
متن کاملGravitino Dark Matter and Cosmological Constraints
The gravitino is a promising candidate for cold dark matter. We study cos-mological constraints on scenarios in which the gravitino is the lightest supersymmetric particle and a charged slepton the next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle (NLSP). We obtain new results for the hadronic nucleosynthesis bounds by computing the 4-body decay of the NLSP slepton into the gravitino, the associated lep...
متن کاملConstraints on the Warm Dark Matter Model from Gravitational Lensing
Formation of sub-galactic halos is suppressed in warm dark matter (WDM) model due to thermal motion of WDM particles. This may provide a natural resolution to some puzzles in standard cold dark matter (CDM) theory such as the cusped density profiles of virialized dark halos and the overabundance of low mass satellites. One of the observational tests of the WDM model is to measure the gravitatio...
متن کاملDirect X-ray Constraints on Sterile Neutrino Warm Dark Matter
Warm dark matter (WDM) might more easily account for small scale clustering measurements than the heavier particles typically invoked in Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmologies. In this paper, we consider a ΛWDM cosmology in which sterile neutrinos νs, with a mass ms of roughly 1-100 keV, are the dark matter. We use the diffuse X-ray spectrum (total minus resolved point source emission) of the An...
