Gravitating semirelativistic N-boson systems
Analytic energy bounds for N-boson systems governed by semirelativistic
Hamiltonians of the form H=\sum_{i=1}^N(p_i^2 + m^2)^{1/2} - sum_{1=i<j}^N
v/r_{ij}, with v>0, are derived by use of Jacobi relative coordinates. For
gravity v=c/N, these bounds are substantially tighter than earlier bounds and
they are shown to coincide with known results in the nonrelativistic limit.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures It is now proved that the reduced Hamiltonian is
bounded below by the simple N/2 Hamiltonia

SHARP -- VII. New constraints on the dark matter free-streaming properties and substructure abundance from gravitationally lensed quasars
We present an analysis of seven strongly gravitationally lensed quasars and
the corresponding constraints on the properties of dark matter. Our results are
derived by modelling the lensed image positions and flux-ratios using a
combination of smooth macro models and a population of low-mass haloes within
the mass range 10^6 to 10^9 Msun. Our lens models explicitly include
higher-order complexity in the form of stellar discs and luminous satellites,
as well as low-mass haloes located along the observed lines of sight for the
first time. Assuming a Cold Dark Matter (CDM) cosmology, we infer an average
total mass fraction in substructure of f_sub = 0.012^{+0.007}_{-0.004} (68 per
cent confidence limits), which is in agreement with the predictions from CDM
hydrodynamical simulations to within 1 sigma. This result is closer to the
predictions than those from previous studies that did not include line-of-sight
haloes. Under the assumption of a thermal relic dark matter model, we derive a
lower limit on the particle relic mass of m th > 5.58 keV (95 per cent
confidence limits), which is consistent with a value of m_th > 5.3 keV from the
recent analysis of the Ly-alpha forest. We also identify two main sources of
possible systematic errors and conclude that deeper investigations in the
complex structure of lens galaxies as well as the size of the background
sources should be a priority for this field.Comment: 14 pages, 7 figures, accepted for publication in MNRA
