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…
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…
Transient Radio Signatures from Neutron Star Encounters with QCD Axion Miniclusters
Thomas D. P. Edwards, Bradley J. Kavanagh, Luca Visinelli +1
The QCD axion is expected to form dense structures known as axion miniclusters if the Peccei-Quinn symmetry is broken after inflation. Miniclusters that have survived until today w…
Impact of substructure on local dark matter searches
Alejandro Ibarra, Bradley J. Kavanagh, Andreas Rappelt
Dark matter substructure can contribute significantly to local dark matter searches and may provide a large uncertainty in the interpretation of those experiments. For direct detec…
Primordial Black Holes as Silver Bullets for New Physics at the Weak Scale
Gianfranco Bertone, Adam Coogan, Daniele Gaggero +2
Observational constraints on gamma rays produced by the annihilation of weakly interacting massive particles around primordial black holes (PBHs) imply that these two classes of Da…
Digging for Dark Matter: Spectral Analysis and Discovery Potential of Paleo-Detectors
Thomas D. P. Edwards, Bradley J. Kavanagh, Christoph Weniger +5
Paleo-detectors are a recently proposed method for the direct detection of Dark Matter (DM). In such detectors, one would search for the persistent damage features left by DM--nucl…
