In the CCPP Brown-Bag seminar today, Neal Weiner (NYU) spoke about the possible connections between the dark sector (where dark matter lives) and our sector (where the standard model lives). He discussed the WIMP miracle, and then where we might look in phenomenology space for the particle interactions that put the WIMPs or related particles in equilibrium with the standard-model particles in the early Universe.
In the afternoon, I worked with Abby Shaum (NYU) and Kate Storey-Fisher (NYU) to get our AAS abstracts ready for submission for the AAS Winter Meeting in Honolulu.
