Particle Probes with Superradiant Pulsars
David E. Kaplan, Surjeet Rajendran, Paul Riggins
We demonstrate that rotational superradiance can be efficient in millisecond pulsars. Measurements from the two fastest known pulsars PSR J1748-2446ad and PSR B1937+21 can place bo…
Type Ia supernovae from dark matter core collapse
Ryan Janish, Vijay Narayan, Paul Riggins
Dark matter (DM) which sufficiently heats a local region in a white dwarf will trigger runaway fusion, igniting a type Ia supernova (SN). In a companion paper, this instability was…
Axion production and detection with superconducting RF cavities
Ryan Janish, Vijay Narayan, Surjeet Rajendran +1
We propose a novel design of a laboratory search for axions based on photon regeneration with superconducting RF cavities. Our particular setup uses a toroid as a region of confine…
White Dwarfs as Dark Matter Detectors
Peter Graham, Ryan Janish, Vijay Narayan +2
Dark matter that is capable of sufficiently heating a local region in a white dwarf will trigger runaway fusion and ignite a type Ia supernova. This was originally proposed in Grah…
