MeV dark matter decay forecasts for the COSI mission

Robin Anthony-Petersen, Orion Ning, Yu Watanabe +21

The decay of dark matter (DM) is a generic prediction of many particle physics models, producing distinctive monochromatic signatures in environments such as the Galactic halo. Sea…

A unified modeling of X-ray and gamma-ray spectro-polarimetric data: the case of Cygnus X-1

Tristan Bouchet, Thomas Siegert, Victoria Grinberg +4

Recent X-ray and soft gamma-ray spectro-polarimetric observations of black hole X-ray binaries, such as Cygnus X-1, reveal discrepancies that challenge current models of accretion…

Cosmological - Pair-Production Background

Mika A. Gelowicz, Thomas Siegert, Saurabh Mittal +10

The origin of positrons is one of the unsolved puzzles in astrophysics as the majority of sources are still unidentified. The Cosmic Photon Background (CPB) is the isotropic radiat…

Stellar flares cannot explain the Galactic 511 keV emission

Saurabh Mittal, Thomas Siegert, Francesca Calore +12

The origin of the 511 keV line signal in the Milky Way remains unresolved despite decades of observations. The measured flux of $\sim 3 \times 10^{-3}\,\mathrm{ph\,cm^{-2}\,s^{-1}}…

Production of radioactive Na in core-collapse supernovae: the Ne-E(L) component in presolar grains and its possible consequences on supernova observations

M. Pignatari, S. Amari, P. Hoppe +8

Presolar graphite grains carry the isotopic signatures of their parent stars. A significant fraction of presolar graphites shows isotopic abundance anomalies relative to solar for…
