The abstract deadline for the 2025 Women+ in Physics Canada Conference has been extended to May 2! Share your research with a national audience committed to advancing gender equity in physics. WIPC+ is open to all physicists - please share and encourage others to submit! 075
Leo Kim @jjlkim.bsky.social · 17/04/2025A bit late, but happy that our work was published in PRL last week! With Melissa Diamond and @joebramante.bsky.social, we explored a new way to search for diffuse clumps of dark matter if dark matter and photons interact. Check it out! journals.aps.org/prl/abstract...journals.aps.orgDimming Starlight with Dark Compact ObjectsCompact objects formed from dark matter could be detected by examining the dimming of background light when the dark objects pass across the line of sight with Earth. 052
