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…

Axions in Andromeda: Searching for Minicluster -- Neutron Star Encounters with the Green Bank Telescope

Liam Walters, Jordan Shroyer, Madeleine Edenton +5

The QCD axion and axion-like particles are compelling candidates for galactic dark matter. Theoretically, axions can convert into photons in the presence of a strong external magne…

The Lunar Gravitational-wave Antenna: Mission Studies and Science Case

Parameswaran Ajith, Pau Amaro Seoane, Manuel Arca Sedda +83

The Lunar Gravitational-wave Antenna (LGWA) is a proposed array of next-generation inertial sensors to monitor the response of the Moon to gravitational waves (GWs). Given the size…

Dark Matter Mounds: towards a realistic description of dark matter overdensities around black holes

Gianfranco Bertone, A. Renske A. C. Wierda, Daniele Gaggero +3

Dark matter overdensities around black holes can be searched for by looking at the characteristic imprint they leave on the gravitational waveform of binary black hole mergers. Cur…

Sharpening the dark matter signature in gravitational waveforms II: Numerical simulations with the NbodyIMRI code

Bradley J. Kavanagh, Theophanes K. Karydas, Gianfranco Bertone +2

Future gravitational wave observatories can probe dark matter by detecting the dephasing in the waveform of binary black hole mergers induced by dark matter overdensities. Such a d…
