The Effect of Sun's Gravitational Focusing on Dark Matter Annual Modulation

Tuesday January 28, 2014
2:00 pm


 Presenter:  Franco Giuliani (UNM)
 Series:  Nuclear, Particle, Astroparticle and Cosmology (NUPAC) Seminars
 Abstract:  I will lead a discussion on a recent paper (Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 011301 (2014), e-Print: arXiv:1308.1953 [astro-ph.CO]) that points out gravitational focusing of the Sun can alter the annual modulation of the scattering rate of dark matter in direct detection experiments.
 Host:  Rouzbeh Allahverdi
 Location:  PAIS-2540, PAIS
