Stringent Constraints on Gravitational Wave Signatures of Dark Electromagnetism in Neutron Star Binaries
Ian Harris, Yonatan Kahn
Gravitational wave interferometers have studied compact object mergers and solidified our understanding of strong gravity. Their increasing precision raises the possibility of dete…

Effects of Lighter-than-QCD Axions on Neutron Star Tidal Deformability
Yonatan Kahn, Michael Wentzel, Nicolás Yunes
Finite density corrections to the lighter-than-QCD axion can invert the effective axion potential, sourcing a non-trivial axion field inside dense objects. We perform the first num…
