Conversion of Dark matter axions to photons in magnetospheres of neutron stars

M. S. Pshirkov, S. B. Popov

We propose a new method to detect observational appearance of Dark Matter axions. The method utilizes observations of neutron stars (NSs) in radio. It is based on the conversion of…

Is There a Relationship between the Density of Primordial Black Holes in a Galaxy and the Rate of Cosmological Gamma-Ray Bursts?

Alexander Shatskiy

The rate of accretion of matter from a solar-type star onto a primordial black hole (PBH) that passes through it is calculated. The probability that a PBH is captured into an orbit…

Electron-Positron Plasma Generation in a Magnetar Magnetosphere

Ya. N. Istomin, D. N. Sobyanin

We consider the electron-positron plasma generation processes in the magnetospheres of magnetars - neutron stars with strong surface magnetic fields, B = 10^(14) - 10^(15) G. We sh…

On the Possibility of the Detection of Extinct Radio Pulsars

V. S. Beskin, S. A. Eliseeva

We explore the possibilities for detecting pulsars that have ceased to radiate in the radio band. We consider two models: the model with hindered particle escape from the pulsar su…

Diffuse Gamma-ray Emission from the Galactic Center - A Multiple Energy Injection Model

K. S. Cheng, D. O. Chernyshov, V. A. Dogiel

We suggest that the energy source of the observed diffuse gamma-ray emission from the direction of the Galactic center is the Galactic black hole Sgr A*, which becomes active when…

Electric field of a pointlike charge in a strong magnetic field and ground state of a hydrogenlike atom

A. E. Shabad, V. V. Usov

In an external constant magnetic field, so strong that the electron Larmour length is much shorter than its Compton length, we consider the modification of the Coulomb potential of…

Dark matter annihilation near a black hole: plateau vs. weak cusp

Eugene Vasiliev

Dark matter annihilation in so-called ``spikes'' near black holes is believed to be an important method of indirect dark matter detection. In the case of circular particle orbits,…

Gamma Rays frim the Galactic Centre

A. D. Erlykin, A. W. Wolfendale

Recent results from the HESS gamma ray telescope have shown the presence of both a diffuse, extended, flux of gamma rays above ~0.4 TeV and discrete sources in and near the Galacti…

On the Possibility of Observing the Shapiro Effect for Pulsars in Globular Clusters

T. I. Larchenkova, A. A. Lutovinov

For pulsars in globular clusters, we suggest using observations of the relativistic time delay of their radiation in the gravitational eld of a massive body (the Shapiro effect) lo…
