DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/UTPhysics/8/
 ">The Milky Way's Dark Matter halo</a>\nby Maria Benito (NICPB\, Tallinn) 
 as part of Theoretical physics seminar @ Tartu\n\nLecture held in Physicum
  room A101\, University of Tartu\, Estonia.\n\nAbstract\nThe distribution 
 of Dark Matter in galaxies is one remarkable output of structure formation
  in a cosmological context\, and an important input for searches of the na
 ture of Dark Matter. In this talk\, I will describe the sources of uncerta
 inty that affect the observational determination of the Dark Matter conten
 t in the Milky Way\, and I will quantify their effect on the estimated Dar
 k Matter density by means of a data-driven analysis. I will further show t
 hat the uncertainties on the Dark Matter distribution\, and their impact o
 n searches of physics beyond the standard model\, stays sizable even with 
 state-of-the-art determinations of astrophysical quantities of relevance (
 such as the Sun’s circular velocity and its distance to the Galactic cen
 ter).\n
