Chasing Gamma-Ray Signals from Binary Neutron Star Coalescences with the Cherenkov Telescope Array: Prospects and Observing Strategies
S. Abe, J. Abhir, A. Abhishek +457
The detection of gravitational waves (GWs) from a binary neutron star (BNS) merger by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo (GW170817), together with its electromagnetic counterpart, th…
Gamma Rays from UltraCompact Minihaloes: Effects on the Earth's Atmosphere and Links to Mass Extinction Events
M. Sarkis, G. Beck, B. C. Thomas
Recent studies of the effects on the Earth's atmosphere by astrophysical sources, such as nearby gamma-ray bursts or supernovae, have shown that these events could lead to severe c…
A Multi-frequency analysis of dark matter annihilation interpretations of recent anti-particle and gamma-ray excesses in cosmic structures
G. Beck, S. Colafrancesco
The Fermi-LAT observation of a gamma-ray excess from the galactic-centre, as well as the PAMELA, AMS, and AMS-2 anti-particle excesses, and the recent claim of a Fermi-LAT excess i…
Prospects for -ray observations of the Perseus galaxy cluster with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Consortium, :, K. Abe +564
Galaxy clusters are expected to be dark matter (DM) reservoirs and storage rooms for the cosmic-ray protons (CRp) that accumulate along the cluster's formation history. Accordingly…
Dark Matter Line Searches with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
S. Abe, J. Abhir, A. Abhishek +562
Monochromatic gamma-ray signals constitute a potential smoking gun signature for annihilating or decaying dark matter particles that could relatively easily be distinguished from a…
Probing Dark Matter and Fundamental Physics with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
F. Iocco, M. Meyer, M. Doro +71
Astrophysical observations provide strong evidence that more than 80% of all matter in the Universe is in the form of dark matter (DM). Two leading candidates of particles beyond t…
Sensitivity of the Cherenkov Telescope Array to a dark matter signal from the Galactic centre
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Consortium, :, A. Acharyya +449
We provide an updated assessment of the power of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) to search for thermally produced dark matter at the TeV scale, via the associated gamma-ray sig…
Sensitivity of the Cherenkov Telescope Array for probing cosmology and fundamental physics with gamma-ray propagation
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Consortium, :, H. Abdalla +496
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA), the new-generation ground-based observatory for -ray astronomy, provides unique capabilities to address significant open questions in astro…
SuperB Technical Design Report
SuperB Collaboration, M. Baszczyk, P. Dorosz +406
In this Technical Design Report (TDR) we describe the SuperB detector that was to be installed on the SuperB e+e- high luminosity collider. The SuperB asymmetric collider, which wa…
Prospects for dark matter observations in dwarf spheroidal galaxies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +491
The dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) orbiting the Milky Way are widely regarded as systems supported by velocity dispersion against self-gravity, and as prime targets for the sear…
Evolution of Dark Matter Halos and their Radio Emissions
S. Colafrancesco, P. Marchegiani, G. Beck
Radio synchrotron emission is expected as a natural by-product of the self-annihilation of super-symmetric dark matter particles. In this work we discuss the general properties of…
