New limits on extragalactic magnetic fields from rotation measures
Maxim S. Pshirkov, Peter G. Tinyakov, Federico R. Urban
We take advantage of the wealth of rotation measures data contained in the NRAO VLA Sky Survey catalogue to derive new, statistically robust, upper limits on the strength of extrag…
Adiabatic contraction revisited: implications for primordial black holes
Fabio Capela, Maxim Pshirkov, Peter Tinyakov
We simulate the adiabatic contraction of a dark matter (DM) distribution during the process of the star formation, paying particular attention to the phase space distribution of th…
A comment on "Exclusion of the remaining mass window for primordial black holes ...", arXiv:1401.3025
Fabio Capela, Maxim Pshirkov, Peter Tinyakov
In arXiv:1401.3025 a new mechanism of energy loss by primordial black holes passing through neutron stars has been proposed, which is more efficient, by many orders of magnitude, t…
Mapping UHECRs deflections through the turbulent galactic magnetic field with the latest RM data
M. S. Pshirkov, P. G. Tinyakov, F. R. Urban
We study the influence of the random part of the Galactic magnetic field on the propagation of ultra high-energy cosmic rays. Within very mild approximations about the properties o…
Constraints on primordial black holes as dark matter candidates from capture by neutron stars
Fabio Capela, Maxim Pshirkov, Peter Tinyakov
We investigate constraints on primordial black holes (PBHs) as dark matter candidates that arise from their capture by neutron stars (NSs). If a PBH is captured by a NS, the star i…
Constraints on primordial black holes as dark matter candidates from star formation
Fabio Capela, Maxim Pshirkov, Peter Tinyakov
By considering adiabatic contraction of the dark matter (DM) during star formation, we estimate the amount of DM trapped in stars at their birth. If the DM consists partly of primo…
