Searching for Primordial Black Holes in our own backyard!
In this Astrobite, the authors search for primordial black holes, a dark matter candidate, by calculating the effect their gravity would have on objects in our Solar System!
Did the Sun swallow a black hole?
Find out what would happen if the Sun or other stars hid primordial black holes in their centers.
UR: Self-Interacting Dark Matter Halos: To Collapse or to Not?
As part of our Undergraduate Research series, Neev Shah explores how alternative dark matter models describe the evolution of galaxies.
Do Pulsars surf on waves of dark matter?
If every pulsar had more motion
Across the galactic plane
Then they’d all be surfin’
On fuzzy dark matter, yeah
Can we identify the host galaxies of LISA sources?
The upcoming LISA mission promises to detect many gravitational wave events, but can it attribute any of them to a host galaxy? Let’s find out!
What’s all that racket? Or: what’s behind the Gravitational Wave Background?
In this Astrobite, we look at some of the potential sources of the newly discovered gravitational wave background. Supermassive Black Hole Binary mergers are believed to be the primary culprit, but several other fascinating phenomena could also be contributing.
