No evidence for gamma-ray emission from the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy
Christopher Eckner, Silvia Manconi, Francesca Calore
More than a decade ago, the Large Area Telescope aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope unveiled the existence of two gigantic gamma-ray lobes known as the Fermi bubbles. While…
New constraints on the central mass contents of Omega Centauri from combined stellar kinematics and pulsar timing
Andrés Bañares-Hernández, Francesca Calore, Jorge Martin Camalich +1
We perform a combined analysis of stellar kinematics and line-of-sight accelerations of millisecond pulsars to investigate the mass contents of Omega Centauri. We consider multiple…
Quiescent black hole X-ray binaries as multi-messenger sources
Dimitrios Kantzas, Francesca Calore
The origin of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) is unknown even though they have traditionally been connected to supernovae based on energetic arguments. In the past decades, Galactic bla…
An Image-Based Search for Pulsar Candidates in the MeerKAT Bulge Survey
Dale A. Frail, Emil Polisensky, Scott D. Hyman +13
We report on the results of an image-based search for pulsar candidates toward the Galactic bulge. We used mosaic images from the MeerKAT radio telescope, that were taken as part o…
Constraining gravitational-wave backgrounds from conversions into photons in the Galactic magnetic field
Alessandro Lella, Francesca Calore, Pierluca Carenza +1
High-frequency gravitational waves ( MHz) may provide a unique signature for the existence of exotic physics. The lack of current and future gravitational-wave experim…
Simulation-based inference of radio millisecond pulsars in globular clusters
Joanna Berteaud, Christopher Eckner, Francesca Calore +2
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are abundant in globular clusters (GCs), which offer favorable environments for their creation. While the advent of recent, powerful facilities led to a…
Probing protoneutron stars with gamma-ray axionscopes
Alessandro Lella, Francesca Calore, Pierluca Carenza +4
Axion-like particles (ALPs) coupled to nucleons can be efficiently produced in the interior of protoneutron stars (PNS) during supernova (SN) explosions. If these ALPs are also cou…
A targeted radio pulsar survey of redback candidates with MeerKAT
T. Thongmeearkom, C. J. Clark, R. P. Breton +18
Redbacks are millisecond pulsar binaries with low mass, irradiated companions. These systems have a rich phenomenology that can be used to probe binary evolution models, pulsar win…
Robust inference of the Galactic centre gamma-ray excess spatial properties
Deheng Song, Christopher Eckner, Chris Gordon +6
The gamma-ray Fermi-LAT Galactic centre excess (GCE) has puzzled scientists for over 15 years. Despite ongoing debates about its properties, and especially its spatial distribution…
The Galactic center excess at the highest energies: morphology and photon-count statistics
Silvia Manconi, Francesca Calore, Fiorenza Donato
The nature of the GeV gamma-ray Galactic center excess (GCE) in the data of Fermi-Large Area Telescope (LAT) is still to be unveiled. We present a new analysis of the inner Galaxy…
Sub-GeV Dark Matter Annihilation: Limits from Milky Way observations with INTEGRAL
Thomas Siegert, Francesca Calore, Pasquale Dario Serpico
From 16 years of INTEGRAL/SPI -ray observations, we derive bounds on annihilating light dark matter particles in the halo of the Milky Way up to masses of about 300 MeV. We test…
