Gamma Rays from ALP-Photon Conversion and Inverse Compton Reprocessing in Neutron Star Magnetospheres

Federica Giacchino, Conrado A. Torres, Giorgio Galanti +3

Exploring axion-like particle (ALP) signatures from neutron stars (NSs) in the \emph{Fermi}-LAT energy range remains largely unexplored. Neutron stars with exceptionally strong mag…

A Fast Earth-scattering Formalism for Light Dark Matter with Dark Photon Mediators

Agustín Lantero-Barreda, Carlos Centeno-Lorca, Bradley J. Kavanagh +1

While Dark Matter (DM) is typically assumed to interact only very weakly with the particles of the Standard Model, many direct detection experiments are currently exploring regions…

Dark matter mounds from the collapse of supermassive stars: a general-relativistic analysis

Roberto Caiozzo, Gianfranco Bertone, Piero Ullio +3

Recent work has highlighted the importance of a fully relativistic treatment of the dephasing of gravitational waves induced by dark-matter overdensities in extreme mass-ratio insp…

Hints of Dark Matter Spikes in Low-mass X-ray Binaries: a critical assessment

Francesca Scarcella, Bradley J. Kavanagh

Three black-hole low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) in the Milky Way show rates of period decay which cannot be easily explained by standard mechanisms. Recently, it has been claimed…

Indirect detection of the QCD axion

Luca Visinelli, Bradley Johnson, Bradley J. Kavanagh +3

The QCD axion, originally proposed to solve the strong CP problem in QCD, is a prominent candidate for dark matter (DM). In the presence of strong magnetic fields, such as those ar…

The cosmic history of Primordial Black Hole accretion and its uncertainties

Pratibha Jangra, Daniele Gaggero, Bradley J. Kavanagh +1

Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) have not been experimentally detected so far, but their existence would provide important insights about the early Universe and serve as one of the po…
