Correlated gravitational wave and microlensing signals of macroscopic dark matter

Published 2 Jul 2021 in hep-ph, astro-ph.CO, and hep-ex | (2107.00859v2)

Abstract: Fermion dark matter particles can aggregate to form extended dark matter structures via a first-order phase transition in which the particles get trapped in the false vacuum. We study Fermi balls created in a phase transition induced by a generic quartic thermal effective potential. We show that for Fermi balls of mass, $3\times 10{-12}M_\odot \lesssim M_{\rm FB} \lesssim 10{-5}M_\odot$, correlated observations of gravitational waves produced during the phase transition (at SKA/THEIA/$\mu$Ares), and gravitational microlensing caused by Fermi balls (at Subaru-HSC), can be made.
