  2. 1. Dark matter electron interactions in detector materials

    Author : Einar Urdshals; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; effective theory; Dark matter; direct detection;

    Abstract : Dark Matter (DM) makes up 85% of the matter content of the universe, and its gravitational effects are seen on scales ranging from that of cosmology to that of galactic astrophysics. The nature of DM is, however, unknown. READ MORE

  4. 2. Dark Matter in the Solar System, Galaxy, and Beyond

    Author : Axel Widmark; Jens Jasche; Malcolm Fairbairn; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dark matter: phenomenology; dark matter: indirect detection; dark matter: particle nature; Galactic dynamics; Galactic composition; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : There is evidence that dark matter constitutes a majority of the Universe's matter content. Yet, we are ignorant about its nature. Understanding dark matter requires new physics, possibly in the form of a new species of fundamental particles. READ MORE

  5. 3. Studies of dark matter in and around stars

    Author : Sofia Sivertsson; Tommy Ohlsson; Joakim Edsjö; Gianfranco Bertone; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dark matter; particle astrophysics;

    Abstract : There is by now compelling evidence that most of the matter in the Universe is in the form of dark matter, a form of matter quite different from the matter we experience in every day life. The gravitational effects of this dark matter have been observed in many different ways but its true nature is still unknown. READ MORE

  6. 4. Delving in the Dark : Searching for Signatures of Non-Standard Physics in Cosmological and Astrophysical Observables

    Author : Janina J. Renk; Joakim Edsjö; Pat Scott; Felix Kahlhöfer; David F. Mota; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cosmology; gravitation; Galileon; dark energy; dark matter; cosmic superstrings; neutrino mass; parameter inference; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : The dark sectors of our Universe, dark matter and dark energy, together constitute about 96 % of the total energy content of the Universe. To date, we only have observational evidence for their existence. READ MORE

  7. 5. Light from Dark Matter : Hidden Dimensions, Supersymmetry, and Inert Higgs

    Author : Michael Gustafsson; Lars Bergström; Steen Hannestad; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : Recent observational achievements within cosmology and astrophysics have lead to a concordance model in which the energy content in our Universe is dominated by presumably fundamentally new and exotic ingredients – dark energy and dark matter. To reveal the nature of these ingredients is one of the greatest challenges in physics. READ MORE
