Moving a Detector to Probe New Neutrino Interactions: IWCD at Hyper-Kamiokande
Thomas Schwemberger, Volodymyr Takhistov
Moving a detector through a beam with a spatially varying energy spectrum exposes the same target and apparatus to distinct incident spectra, enabling interaction spectroscopy. Whi…
Multimessenger Constraints on Supermassive Dark Stars and Their Black Hole Remnants
Marco Manno, Thomas Schwemberger, Volodymyr Takhistov
Dark matter (DM) annihilation can power the first generation of stars as long lived dark stars (DSs) that grow to supermassive scales and event…
Diffuse Neutrino Signals from Dark Stars Seeding Super-Massive Black Holes
Thomas Schwemberger, Volodymyr Takhistov
Dark stars (DSs) -- first stars powered by dark-matter (DM) heating rather than fusion -- could form in the early Universe. They can grow to masses and col…
Clash of the Titans: ultra-high energy KM3NeT event versus IceCube data
Shirley Weishi Li, Pedro Machado, Daniel Naredo-Tuero +1
KM3NeT has reported the detection of a remarkably high-energy through-going muon. Lighting up about a third of the detector, this muon likely originated from a neutrino exceeding 1…
Hunting Nonstandard Neutrino Interactions and Leptoquarks in Dark Matter Experiments
Thomas Schwemberger, Volodymyr Takhistov, Tien-Tien Yu
Next generation direct dark matter (DM) detection experiments will have unprecedented capabilities to explore coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENS) complementary to dedic…
