Explore signatures of beyond-CDM physics in strong gravitational lenses in this 21-minute conference talk by Daniel Gilman from the University of Chicago. Delivered as part of the "Cosmic Signals of Dark Matter Physics: New Synergies" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, delve into how strong gravitational lensing can provide insights into dark matter physics beyond the Cold Dark Matter (CDM) paradigm. Examine how new developments in theory, cosmological simulations, and observational capabilities from large surveys are expanding the landscape for dark matter discovery, particularly for models that can only be tested through astrophysical and cosmological probes. Gain an understanding of how strong gravitational lenses can serve as powerful tools in constraining the nature of dark matter and potentially revealing physics beyond the Standard Model.
