The derived upper limit on the abundance of stellar mass MACHOs rules out such objects as an important component of the Galactic halo if their mass is smaller than 1 solar mass.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2000-03-02T11:18:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "galactic halo", "stellar mass machos rules", "recherche dobjets sombres", "large magellanic cloud", "solar mass" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 544604 } } }
