Discovering supernova-produced dark matter with directional detectors
Elisabetta Baracchini, William DeRocco, Giorgio Dho
Supernovae can produce vast fluxes of new particles with masses on the MeV scale, a mass scale of interest for models of light dark matter. When these new particles become diffusiv…
Exploring the robustness of stellar cooling constraints on light particles
William DeRocco, Peter W. Graham, Surjeet Rajendran
Stellar cooling arguments place strict restrictions on a wide variety of models of new physics. In this paper, we argue that mechanisms to evade these constraints are restricted by…
Muons in supernovae: implications for the axion-muon coupling
Robert Bollig, William DeRocco, Peter W. Graham +1
The high temperature and electron degeneracy attained during a supernova allow for the formation of a large muon abundance within the core of the resulting proto-neutron star. If n…
