Galactic Anomalies and Particle Dark Matter
This is a brief review of aspects of galactic astrophysics and astronomy which have a possible bearing on particle dark matter. It is still quite normal for particle physicists to try to solve “well known anomalies“ that are apparently seen in observations of galaxies (missing satellites, cusp vs. c...

| description | This is a brief review of aspects of galactic astrophysics and astronomy which have a possible bearing on particle dark matter. It is still quite normal for particle physicists to try to solve “well known anomalies“ that are apparently seen in observations of galaxies (missing satellites, cusp vs. core, etc.) whereas a lot of these anomalies have actually been resolved many years ago. We will try to briefly review the field and discuss many of the areas in question. |
