High resolution search for dark-matter axions
In the current concordance cosmology, 23% of the universe’s total energy density is contributed by exotic dark matter [1]. The axion, arising from the Peccei-Quinn solution to the strong CP problem [2], satisfies the two criteria necessary for cold dark matter [3]: (1) a very cold population of axions could be present in our universe in sufficient quantities to provide the required dark matter ...
متن کاملDark matter and stellar evolution
The exist.rnce of weakly interacting massive pa1·ticles (WHvlPs) has been suggested to explain both t.he dark matter conundrum and the sohu neutrino deficiency. Provided t.hat thf'y do not annihilat.f', these part.ides can be extremely efficient. in transporting energy inside stellar cori�s. They can supplement radiation and, under the specific circ:umstances which Wf' analyze, f'H'.'11 supprf'...
متن کاملDeath of Stellar Baryonic Dark Matter
The nature of the dark matter in the haloes of galaxies is one of the outstanding questions in astrophysics. All stellar candidates, until recently thought to be likely baryonic contributions to the Halo of our Galaxy, are shown to be ruled out. Faint stars and brown dwarfs are found to constitute only a few percent of the mass of the Galaxy. Stellar remnants, including white dwarfs and neutron...
متن کاملDeath of Stellar Baryonic Dark Matter Candidates
The nature of the dark matter in the Universe is one of the outstanding questions in astrophysics. In this talk, I address possible stellar baryonic contributions to the 50-90% of our Galaxy that is made of unknown dark matter. First I show that faint stars and brown dwarfs constitute only a few percent of the mass of the Galaxy. Next, I show that stellar remnants, including white dwarfs and ne...
متن کاملThe distribution of dark matter and stellar orbits in nine Coma early-type galaxies derived from their stellar kinematics
We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST ) spectroscopy of the nucleus of M31 obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS). Spectra that include the Ca ii infrared triplet (k ’ 85008) see only the red giant stars in the double brightness peaks P1 and P2. In contrast, spectra taken at k ’ 3600 51008 are sensitive to the tiny blue nucleus embedded in P2, the lower surface brightnes...
