The case for a directional dark matter detector and the status of current experimental efforts

S. P. Ahlen, +113 more
TL;DR: The case for a dark matter detector with directional sensitivity was presented at the 2009 CYGNUS workshop on directional dark matter detection, and contributions from theorists and experimental groups in the field as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Local Group on FIRE: dwarf galaxy populations across a suite of hydrodynamic simulations

TL;DR: Garrison-Kimmel et al. as discussed by the authors presented a new set of high-resolution hydrodynamic cosmological zoom-in simulations that apply the Feedback In Realistic Environments physics to both Local Group (LG)-like and isolated Milky Way (MW)-like volumes (10 host systems in total with a baryonic particle mass ≃3500-7000M).
Journal ArticleDOI

Numerical experiments with rubble piles: equilibrium shapes and spins

TL;DR: In this paper, the shape and spin limits of self-gravitating "perfect" rubble piles are investigated, and it is shown that idealized rubble piles behave qualitatively in a manner similar to certain granular materials, at least in the limit where global shape readjustments and/or mass shedding begins.
