SIDM simulations of dwarf halos show that quiescent merger histories produce gravothermal core collapse while sustained mergers prevent collapse and can yield central densities below gravothermal fluid model predictions.

Shock-to-shock distances in double radio relic clusters serve as a merger chronometer to set a 68% upper limit of sigma/m < 0.22 cm²/g on dark matter self-interaction, marginalizing over mass, angle, speed, phase, impact parameter, and gas slope.
An extended parametric model for SIDM halos incorporates mass accretion to delay core collapse and reduces errors in predicted V_max at z=0 relative to the prior Yang et al. (2024b) model.
