Warming Nuclear Pasta with Dark Matter: Kinetic and Annihilation Heating of Neutron Star Crusts
Javier F. Acevedo, Joseph Bramante, Rebecca K. Leane +1
Neutron stars serve as excellent next-generation thermal detectors of dark matter, heated by the scattering and annihilation of dark matter accelerated to relativistic speeds in th…
Anomalous anomalies from virtual black holes
Joseph Bramante, Elizabeth Gould
We investigate gravitational UV/IR mixing models that predict a breakdown of low energy effective field theory, from loop-level, non-local gravitational corrections to particle pro…
Material matter effects in gravitational UV/IR mixing
Joseph Bramante, Elizabeth Gould
We propose a matter effect for the gravitational ultraviolet/infrared (UV/IR) mixing solution to the cosmological constant problem. Previously, the gravitational UV/IR mixing model…
Dark matter astrometry at underground detectors with multiscatter events
Joseph Bramante, Jason Kumar, Nirmal Raj
We show that current and imminent underground detectors are capable of precision astrometry of dark matter. First we show that galactic dark matter velocity distributions can be ob…
Terrestrial and Martian Heat Flow Limits on Dark Matter
Joseph Bramante, Andrew Buchanan, Alan Goodman +1
If dark matter is efficiently captured by a planet, energy released in its annihilation can exceed that planet's total heat output. Building on prior work, we treat Earth's composi…
Superradiant Searches for Dark Photons in Two Stage Atomic Transitions
Amit Bhoonah, Joseph Bramante, Ningqiang Song
We study a new mechanism to discover dark photon fields, by resonantly triggering two photon transitions in cold gas preparations. Using coherently prepared cold parahydrogen, coup…
Supernovae Sparked By Dark Matter in White Dwarfs
Javier F. Acevedo, Joseph Bramante
It was recently demonstrated that asymmetric dark matter can ignite supernovae by collecting and collapsing inside lone sub-Chandrasekhar mass white dwarfs, and that this may be th…
