The diverse density profiles of galaxy clusters with self-interacting dark matter plus baryons (2018)
Journal Article
Robertson, A., Massey, R., Eke, V., Tulin, S., Yu, H., Bahé, Y., …Schaye, J. (2018). The diverse density profiles of galaxy clusters with self-interacting dark matter plus baryons. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 476(1), L20-L24. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnrasl/sly024

We present the first simulated galaxy clusters (M200 > 1014 M⊙) with both self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) and baryonic physics. They exhibit a greater diversity in both dark matter and stellar density profiles than their counterparts in simulatio...

Elastic proton-proton scattering at 13 TeV (2018)
Journal Article
Khoze, V., Martin, A., & Ryskin, M. (2018). Elastic proton-proton scattering at 13 TeV. Physical Review D, 97(3), Article 034019. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.97.034019

The predictions of a model which was tuned in 2013 to describe the elastic and diffractive p p - and/or p ¯ p -data at collider energies up to 7 TeV are compared with the new 13 TeV TOTEM results. The possibility of the presence of an odd-signature O... Read More about Elastic proton-proton scattering at 13 TeV.

A Color-locus Method for Mapping R V Using Ensembles of Stars (2018)
Journal Article
Lee, A., Green, G. M., Schlafly, E. F., Finkbeiner, D. P., Burgett, W., Chambers, K., …Waters, C. (2018). A Color-locus Method for Mapping R V Using Ensembles of Stars. Astrophysical Journal, 854(2), Article 79. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/aaaa6d

We present a simple but effective technique for measuring angular variation in R V across the sky. We divide stars from the Pan-STARRS1 catalog into Healpix pixels and determine the posterior distribution of reddening and R V for each pixel using two...

Reducing the H0 and σ8 tensions with dark matter-neutrino interactions (2018)
Journal Article
Di Valentino, E., Bœhm, C., Hivon, E., & Bouchet, F. R. (2018). Reducing the H0 and σ8 tensions with dark matter-neutrino interactions. Physical Review D, 97(4), Article 043513. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.97.043513

The introduction of dark matter-neutrino interactions modifies the cosmic microwave background (CMB) angular power spectrum at all scales, thus affecting the reconstruction of the cosmological parameters. Such interactions can lead to a slight increa... Read More about Reducing the H0 and σ8 tensions with dark matter-neutrino interactions.

Monte-Carlo simulations of the detailed iron absorption line profiles from thermal winds in X-ray binaries (2018)
Journal Article
Tomaru, R., Done, C., Odaka, H., Watanabe, S., & Takahashi, T. (2018). Monte-Carlo simulations of the detailed iron absorption line profiles from thermal winds in X-ray binaries. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 476(2), 1776-1784. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty336

Blue–shifted absorption lines from highly ionised iron are seen in some high inclination X-ray binary systems, indicating the presence of an equatorial disc wind. This launch mechanism is under debate, but thermal driving should be ubiquitous. X-ray...

Bars in dark-matter-dominated dwarf galaxy discs (2018)
Journal Article
Marasco, A., Oman, K., Navarro, J., Frenk, C., & Oosterloo, T. (2018). Bars in dark-matter-dominated dwarf galaxy discs. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 476(2), 2168-2176. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty354

We study the shape and kinematics of simulated dwarf galaxy discs in the APOSTLE suite of Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. We find that a large fraction of these gas-rich, star-forming discs show weak bars in their s... Read More about Bars in dark-matter-dominated dwarf galaxy discs.

Results from the Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search Experiment at Soudan (2018)
Journal Article
Agnese, R., Aramaki, T., Arnquist, I., Baker, W., Balakishiyeva, D., Banik, S., …Zhao, X. (2018). Results from the Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search Experiment at Soudan. Physical Review Letters, 120(6), Article 061802. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.120.061802

We report the result of a blinded search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) using the majority of the SuperCDMS Soudan data set. With an exposure of 1690 kg d, a single candidate event is observed, consistent with expected backgrounds....

The multiplicity and anisotropy of galactic satellite accretion (2018)
Journal Article
Shao, S., Cautun, M., Frenk, C. S., Grand, R. J., Gómez, F. A., Marinacci, F., & Simpson, C. M. (2018). The multiplicity and anisotropy of galactic satellite accretion. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 476(2), 1796-1810. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty343

We study the incidence of group and filamentary dwarf galaxy accretion into Milky Way (MW) mass haloes using two types of hydrodynamical simulations: EAGLE, which resolves a large cosmological volume, and the AURIGA suite, which are very high resolut...
