The mass of the Milky Way out to 100 kpc using halo stars (2020)
Journal Article
Deason, A. J., Erkal, D., Belokurov, V., Fattahi, A., Gómez, F. A., Grand, R. J., …Zhao, G. (2021). The mass of the Milky Way out to 100 kpc using halo stars. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 501(4), 5964-5972. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa3984

We use a distribution function analysis to estimate the mass of the Milky Way (MW) out to 100 kpc using a large sample of halo stars. These stars are compiled from the literature, and the vast majority (⁠∼98 per cent⁠) have 6D phase-space information... Read More about The mass of the Milky Way out to 100 kpc using halo stars.

We study the effects of two popular modified gravity theories, which incorporate very different screening mechanisms, on the angular power spectra of the thermal (tSZ) and kinematic (kSZ) components of the Sunyaev–Zeldovich effect. Using the first co... Read More about The impact of modified gravity on the Sunyaev–Zeldovich effect.

The twisted dark matter halo of the Milky Way (2020)
Journal Article
Shao, S., Cautun, M., Deason, A., & Frenk, C. S. (2021). The twisted dark matter halo of the Milky Way. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 504(4), 6033-6048. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa3883

We analyse systems analogous to the Milky Way (MW) in the EAGLE cosmological hydrodynamics simulation in order to deduce the likely structure of the MW’s dark matter (DM) halo. We identify MW mass haloes in the simulation whose satellite galaxies hav... Read More about The twisted dark matter halo of the Milky Way.

Reconfigurable and self-biased magnonic metamaterials (2020)
Journal Article
Haldar, A., & Adeyeye, A. O. (2020). Reconfigurable and self-biased magnonic metamaterials. Journal of Applied Physics, 128(24), Article 240902. https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0033254

In magnonics, magnetic waves and oscillations are exploited for signal and information processing at microwave frequencies. A magnonic metamaterial is employed to configure different microwave bands by spatial engineering of magnetizations using diff...

Models of gauged U(1)Lμ−Lτ can provide a solution to the long-standing discrepancy between the theoretical prediction for the muon anomalous magnetic moment and its measured value. The extra contribution is due to a new light vector mediator, which a... Read More about D Solar neutrino probes of the muon anomalous magnetic moment in the gauged U(1) L-mu-L-tau.
