Limits on the Macho content of the Galactic Halo from the EROS-2 Survey of the Magellanic Clouds
Open accessAbstract
Aims. The EROS-2 project was designed to test the hypothesis that massive compact halo objects (the so-called “machos”) could be a major component of the dark matter halo of the Milky Way galaxy. To this end, EROS-2 monitored over 6.7 years stars in the Magellanic clouds for microlensing events caused by such objects.

“Given the age 30 of the Galactic halo, a significant fraction of the mass in this component may reside in these remnant stars (e.g., Alcock et al. 2000; Tisserand et al. 2007) and therefore their discovery directly constrains the Galactic mass budget.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
