Comprehensive constraints on heavy sterile neutrinos from core-collapse supernovae
Pierluca Carenza, Giuseppe Lucente, Leonardo Mastrototaro +2
Sterile neutrinos with masses up to MeV can be copiously produced in a supernova (SN) core, through the mixing with active neutrinos. In this regard the SN 1987…
Cross section for supernova axion observation in neutrino water Cherenkov detectors
Pierluca Carenza, Giampaolo Co', Maurizio Giannotti +4
Axions coupled to nucleons might be copiously emitted from core-collapse supernovae (SNe). If the axion-nucleon coupling is strong enough, axions would be emitted from the SN as a…
Uncovering axion-like particles in supernova gamma-ray spectra
Francesca Calore, Pierluca Carenza, Christopher Eckner +4
A future Galactic Supernova (SN) explosion can lead to a gamma-ray signal induced by ultralight Axion-Like Particles (ALPs) thermally produced in the SN core and converted into hig…
Getting the most on supernova axions
Alessandro Lella, Pierluca Carenza, Giampaolo Co' +4
Axion-like particles (ALPs) coupled to nucleons might be copiously emitted from a supernova (SN) core. We extend existing bounds on free-streaming ALPs to the case in which these a…
Terrestrial detection of hidden vectors produced by solar nuclear reactions
Francesco D'Eramo, Giuseppe Lucente, Newton Nath +1
Solar nuclear reactions can occasionally produce sub-MeV elusive beyond the Standard Model particles that escape the solar interior without further interactions. This study focuses…
Probing the Blue Axion with Cosmic Optical Background Anisotropies
Pierluca Carenza, Giuseppe Lucente, Edoardo Vitagliano
A radiative decaying Big Bang relic with a mass , which we dub "blue axion", can be probed with direct and indirect observations of the cosmic optical back…
