The EROS and MACHO collaborations have each published upper limits on the amount of planetary mass dark matter in the Galactic Halo obtained from gravitational microlensing searches. In this paper the two limits are combined to give a much stronger constraint on the abundance of low mass MACHOs.

  1. Dynamical flattening of halo density cusps by Q-ball dark matter

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Interacting Q-ball dark matter flattens NFW cusps via density-dependent mergers that convert rest mass into escaping relativistic dark-sector particles, preferentially in halo centers.

  2. Exploring Gravitational Wave Signatures Due to Primordial Non-gaussianity and Large Scale Structure Using SKAO

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Explores SKAO detection of scalar-induced GW backgrounds as probes of primordial non-Gaussianity and parity violation, with LSS cross-correlation to improve SNR.

  3. Stellar microlensing surveys as a probe of Primordial Black Holes: status and prospects

    astro-ph.GA 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 2.0

    Stellar microlensing surveys exclude compact objects between 10^{-11} and 10^4 solar masses from making up all dark matter under standard assumptions.
