Astroparticle physics 4. Astroparticles: rulers of the Universe? (or almost...) Alberto Carramiñana Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica, Óptica y Electrónica Tonantzintla, Puebla, México alberto@inaoep.mx Xalapa, 10 August 2004
3
The composition of the Universe Planets. Stars: nuclear burning & degenerate corpses. Gas, dust (magnetic fields (cosmic-rays)). Galaxies: normal, active. Cosmological background(s). Protons, neutrons baryons. Electrons, muons leptons. Neutrinos. Mesons hadrons quarks. Early Universe / Cosmic-rays / astrophysical neutrinos / non baryonic dark matter / dark energy
4
Oort’s limit Statistical study of motion of stars in the Solar neighborhood: first evidence of “missing mass”.
5
Dark Galactic halo Light: Mass: –inside solar circle –halo –extended halo 70% to 90% of the mass of the Milky Way is in the dark halo Clemens (1985)
6
MACHOs MAC HOMAssive Compact Halo Objects: –white or red dwarfes, neutron stars, black holes... Searched (and found!) through microlensing events (Alcock et al. 1993) but –Statistics: too few MACHOs for the Galactic halo. –HST: red dwarfes < 6% of halo mass. –TeV detections of z 0.03 AGN bounds on IR background thermal emission from MACHOs
7
Galactic rotation curves They become flat rigid rotation M/L 1 consistently
8
M87 X-ray halo M87: giant elliptical. Brightest Virgo galaxy X-ray emission extends up to 300 kpc –thermal fre-free emission –M(300 kpc) 3 10 13 M –M/L 750
9
Dynamics of groups and clusters Local group –M31 & Milky Way M/L 50 to 70 –Magellanic stream M/L 80 Groups of galaxies M/L 400h Clusters of galaxies –Coma cluster 977 km/s M(3 kpc) 3.3 10 15 M , M/L 660 (Zwicky 1933) X-ray intracluster M 3 10 14 M (baryonic) –cd galaxies 10 13 to 10 14 M , M/L 750 Local supercluster M 8 10 14 M h -1, M/L 400h
10
Surveys of Large Scale structure of the Universe PSC-z: 15,000 galaxies from IRAS all-sky survey 2dF – 6dF: wide field spectrospic survey 2Mass: IR photometry of 30 million objects SDSS: photometric (100 million) and spectroscopic (> 1 m) HDF North & South: deep HST exposures on narrow field UDF GOODS: common HST, CXO, Spitzer fields ELAIS: from ISO
11

12
2dF Galaxy Survey AAO + Cambridge + Durham + Edinburgh 220,000 redshifts Power spectrum of galaxy clustering up to 300 h -1 Mpc (Percival et al. 2001, +....) http://www.mso.anu.edu.au/2dFGS/
13
6dFGs First Data release March 2004: 52,000 redshifts (of 150,000) http://www.mso.edu.au/6DFGs/
14
Sloan Digital Sky Survey Spectrophotometric survey of ¼ of all sky –Photometry for 100 million objects –Spectra for > 1 million objects With a 2.5 m robotic survey telescope. Data releases: –EDR: 14 million / 83,000 (Stoughton et al. 2002) –DR1: 53 million / 186,000 (Abazajian et al. 2003) –DR2: 88 million / 367,000 (Abazajian et al. 2004)

41
Dark matter particles Generate and collapse under gravity Very weak EM coupling (WIMPs). Categories –Hot (relativistic) VS cold (non relativistic) –Thermal relics VS non relics For a thermal relic WIMP –(1) known; (2) well motivated; (3) speculative Goldoni, astro-ph/0403064
42
Dark matter particles 1. known: neutrinos: –thermal relics –too hot; CMB + LSS ruled out. 2.1 neutralinos Lighest super-sym particle of MSSM Superposition of neutral higgsinos and gauginos weakly interactive and massive Thermal coupled relic Mass range: 40 GeV 4 TeV (WMAP)
43
Dark matter particles 2.2 axions Non thermal relics: produced by cosmic strings or vacuum alignment Photon coupling? “Useful range”: eV to meV Experimentally bounded: about to be found or to be ruled out 3. speculative self interacting dark matter particles: to solve cusp and satellite problems Almost ruled out WIMPZILLAs mass 10 13 GeV Goldoni, astro-ph/0403064
44
The cosmic-ray connection!? WIMPZILLAs: produced at the end of inflation: –Stable –mean-life age of Universe: decay beyond GZK limit
