Screened fifth forces mediated by dark matter-baryon interactions: Theory and astrophysical probes

We derive the details of a new screening mechanism where the interactions of baryons and dark matter can be screened according to the local dark matter density. In this mechanism, the value of Newton’s constant is dark matter-density dependent, allowing for the possibility that astrophysical phenome...
