-Dwarfs: White Dwarfs probe Quadratically Coupled Scalars
Kai Bartnick, Konstantin Springmann, Stefan Stelzl +1
We study ultralight scalar fields with quadratic couplings to Standard-Model fermions and derive strong constraints from white-dwarf mass-radius data. Such couplings source scalar…
The COSMIC WISPers White Paper: The physics case for Weakly Interacting Slim Particles
Ariel Arza, Deniz Aybas, Shyam Balaji +124
Axions and other very weakly interacting slim particles (WISPs), with masses below 1 GeV, arise naturally in many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics. In particula…
Constraining Light QCD Axions with Isolated Neutron Star Cooling
Antonio Gómez-Bañón, Kai Bartnick, Konstantin Springmann +1
The existence of light QCD axions, whose mass depends on an additional free parameter, can lead to a new ground state of matter, where the sourced axion field reduces the nucleon e…
