The TRAPUM Large Magellanic Cloud pulsar survey with MeerKAT II: 12 new discoveries and timing solutions for 7 pulsars
V. Prayag, L. Levin, M. Geyer +15
We report the discovery of 12 new radio pulsars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) as part of the TRAPUM (TRAnsients and PUlsars with MeerKAT) Large Survey Project, using the Meer…
A targeted radio pulsar survey of redback candidates with MeerKAT
T. Thongmeearkom, C. J. Clark, R. P. Breton +18
Redbacks are millisecond pulsar binaries with low mass, irradiated companions. These systems have a rich phenomenology that can be used to probe binary evolution models, pulsar win…
Simulated Milky Way analogues: implications for dark matter indirect searches
F. Calore, N. Bozorgnia, M. Lovell +7
We study high-resolution hydrodynamic simulations of Milky Way type galaxies obtained within the "Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments" (EAGLE) project, and id…
Strong constraints on primordial black hole dark matter from 16 years of INTEGRAL/SPI observations
J. Berteaud, F. Calore, J. Iguaz +2
We present a new analysis of the diffuse soft -ray emission towards the inner Galaxy as measured by the SPectrometer aboard the INTEGRAL satellite (SPI) with 16 years of data t…
Fundamental Physics with the Square Kilometre Array
A. Weltman, P. Bull, S. Camera +50
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is a planned large radio interferometer designed to operate over a wide range of frequencies, and with an order of magnitude greater sensitivity an…
Discovery of two new millisecond pulsars towards the Galactic bulge
J. Berteaud, F. Calore, M. Clavel +13
The mysterious Galactic Center Excess of gamma rays could be explained by a large population of millisecond pulsars hiding in the Galactic bulge, too faint to be detected as indivi…
EuCAPT White Paper: Opportunities and Challenges for Theoretical Astroparticle Physics in the Next Decade
R. Alves Batista, M. A. Amin, G. Barenboim +134
Astroparticle physics is undergoing a profound transformation, due to a series of extraordinary new results, such as the discovery of high-energy cosmic neutrinos with IceCube, the…
Diffuse -ray emission from misaligned active galactic nuclei
M. Di Mauro, F. Calore, F. Donato +2
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) with jets seen at small viewing angles are the most luminous and abundant objects in the -ray sky. AGN with jets misaligned along the line-of-sight…
Gamma-ray anisotropies from dark matter in the Milky Way: the role of the radial distribution
F. Calore, V. De Romeri, M. Di Mauro +4
The annihilation of dark matter particles in the halo of galaxies may end up into gamma rays, which travel almost unperturbed till to their detection at Earth. This annihilation si…
Search for TeV emission from spider millisecond pulsars with HAWC
R. Alfaro, E. Anita-Rangel, M. Araya +90
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are observed to emit multi-wavelength radiation, from radio to GeV. Spider MSPs, which interact with their low-mass companion in close orbit (orbital per…
The TRAPUM L-band survey for pulsars in Fermi-LAT gamma-ray sources
C. J. Clark, R. P. Breton, E. D. Barr +35
More than 100 millisecond pulsars (MSPs) have been discovered in radio observations of gamma-ray sources detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT), but hundreds of pulsar-li…
Cross-correlating galaxy catalogs and gravitational waves: a tomographic approach
F. Calore, A. Cuoco, T. Regimbau +2
Unveiling the origin of the coalescing binaries detected via gravitational waves (GW) is challenging, notably if no multi-wavelength counterpart is detected. One important diagnost…
Diffuse -ray emission from misaligned active galactic nuclei
M. Di Mauro, F. Donato, F. Calore
We calculate the diffuse -ray emission due to the population of misaligned AGN (MAGN) unresolved by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the {\it Fermi} Gamma-ray Space Telescope…
Diffuse gamma-ray emission from galactic pulsars
F. Calore, M. Di Mauro, F. Donato
Millisecond Pulsars are second most abundant source population discovered by the Fermi-LAT. They might contribute non-negligibly to the diffuse emission measured at high latitudes…
Feebly Interacting Particles: FIPs 2022 workshop report
C. Antel, M. Battaglieri, J. Beacham +75
Particle physics today faces the challenge of explaining the mystery of dark matter, the origin of matter over anti-matter in the Universe, the origin of the neutrino masses, the a…
Multiwavelength identification of millisecond pulsar candidates in the Galactic bulge
J. Berteaud, F. Calore, M. Clavel +4
The existence of a population of millisecond pulsars in the Galactic bulge is supported, along with other evidence, by the Fermi GeV excess, an anomalous γ-ray emission detected a…
Conservative upper limits on WIMP annihilation cross section from Fermi-LAT -rays
F. Donato, F. Calore, V. De Romeri
The spectrum of an isotropic extragalactic -ray background (EGB) has been measured by the Fermi-LAT telescope at high latitudes. Two new models for the EGB are derived from the…
Electromagnetic probes of primordial black holes as dark matter
Y. Ali-Haimoud, S. Clesse, J. Garcia-Bellido +91
The LIGO discoveries have rekindled suggestions that primordial black holes (BHs) may constitute part to all of the dark matter (DM) in the Universe. Such suggestions came from 1)…
