Projected sensitivity of CTAO to axion-like particles from blazars with a machine learning approach
Francesco Schiavone, Leonardo Di Venere, Francesco Giordano
Blazars are a class of active galactic nuclei, supermassive black holes located at the centres of distant galaxies characterised by strong emission across the entire electromagneti…

A machine learning approach to axion-like particle searches in CTAO observations of blazars
Francesco Schiavone, Leonardo Di Venere, Francesco Giordano
Axion-like particles (ALPs) are a common prediction of several extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics and could be detected through their coupling to photons, which e…
