ASAS-SN Rates IV: Constraints on the Kilonova Rate

Dhvanil D. Desai, Benjamin J. Shappee, Christopher S. Kochanek +10

Kilonovae (KNe) are the electromagnetic signatures of neutron star mergers and are likely the dominant site of cosmic -process nucleosynthesis. However, their intrinsic rate rem…

Minimal Dark Matter: Generalized Framework and Direct-Detection Sensitivity

Spencer Griffith, Juri Smirnov, Laura Lopez-Honorez +1

Minimal electroweak dark matter models are compelling due to their simplicity, though calculations of their freezeout abundance are complicated by nonperturbative effects due to So…

Supernova Rates and Luminosity Functions from ASAS-SN III: Over a Decade of Type Ia SNe and Their Subtypes

Dhvanil D. Desai, Benjamin J. Shappee, Christopher S. Kochanek +11

We present volumetric rates and luminosity functions (LFs) of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN), covering the 11-year period fr…

Towards First Detection of the Solar MSW Transition With JUNO

Obada Nairat, John F. Beacom, Kevin J. Kelly +1

Matter-induced neutrino flavor mixing (the Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein, or MSW, effect) is a central prediction of the neutrino mixing framework, but it has not been conclusively…

PEARLS: 21 Transients Found in the Three-Epoch NIRCam Observations in the Continuous Viewing Zone of the James Webb Space Telescope

Haojing Yan, Bangzheng Sun, Zhiyuan Ma +39

We present 21 transients from our three-epoch, four-band NIRCam observations covering 14.16 arcmin^2 in the Spitzer IRAC Dark Field (IDF), taken by the JWST Prime Extragalactic Are…

Sub-GeV Dark Matter Detection with Dark Rates in Liquid Scintillators

Lillian Santos-Olmsted, Rebecca K. Leane, Carlos Blanco +1

It was recently shown that standard sub-GeV dark matter candidates can be effectively probed by large neutrino observatories via annual modulation of the total photomultiplier hit…
