Caught by its own light: Wimpzillas, the LHAASO knee and the diffuse -ray sky

D. Akl, A. J. Iovino, D. Kantzas +1

We use the proton spectrum resolved by LHAASO across the knee to test superheavy dark matter in the nucleon channel at PeV energies. Both the hardening at PeV and the knee a…

Cosmic rays, gamma rays and neutrinos from discrete black hole X-ray binary ejecta

Nicolas J. Bacon, Alex J. Cooper, Dimitrios Kantzas +2

The origin of cosmic rays from outside the Solar system are unknown, as they are deflected by the interstellar magnetic field. Supernova remnants are the main candidate for cosmic…

Cosmic-ray cooling by dark matter in astrophysical jets

Dimitrios Kantzas, Francesca Calore, Marco Chianese

Astrophysical jets from powerful active galactic nuclei (AGN) have recently been proposed as promising probes of dark matter (DM) in the sub-GeV mass range. AGN launch relativistic…

Quiescent black hole X-ray binaries as multi-messenger sources

Dimitrios Kantzas, Francesca Calore

The origin of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) is unknown even though they have traditionally been connected to supernovae based on energetic arguments. In the past decades, Galactic bla…

Dark matter searches in dwarf spheroidal galaxies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array

Francesco Gabriele Saturni, Michele Doro, Aldo Morselli +1

Dark matter (DM) is one of the major components in the Universe. However, at present its existence is still only inferred through indirect astronomical observations. DM particles c…

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…

Possible contribution of X-ray binary jets to the Galactic cosmic ray and neutrino flux

Dimitrios Kantzas, Sera Markoff, Alex J. Cooper +3

For over a century, the identification of high-energy cosmic ray (CR) sources remains an open question. For Galactic CRs with energy up to eV, supernova remnants (SNRs) h…
