Heavy dark matter in rapidly evolving massive stars
Sandra Robles, Walter Tangarife, Giorgio Busoni
We study the impact of heavy dark matter (DM) captured in massive stars via scattering(s) with the star constituents. We focus on the first stars and use stellar evolution simulati…
From Capture to Collapse: Revisiting Black Hole formation by Fermionic Asymmetric Dark Matter in Neutron Stars
Sandra Robles, Drona Vatsyayan, Giorgio Busoni
Fermionic asymmetric dark matter (ADM) can be captured in neutron stars (NSs) via scatterings with the star constituents. The absence of dark matter annihilation due to its asymmet…
Using neutron stars to probe dark matter charged under a symmetry
Nicole F. Bell, Giorgio Busoni, Avirup Ghosh
Kinetic heating of old cold neutron stars, via the scattering of dark matter with matter in the star, provides a promising way to probe the nature of dark matter interactions. We c…
Heavy Dark Matter in White Dwarfs: Multiple-Scattering Capture and Thermalization
Nicole F. Bell, Giorgio Busoni, Sandra Robles +1
We present an improved treatment for the scattering of heavy dark matter from the ion constituents of a white dwarf. In the heavy dark matter regime, multiple collisions are requir…
Thermalization and Annihilation of Dark Matter in Neutron Stars
Nicole F. Bell, Giorgio Busoni, Sandra Robles +1
The capture of dark matter, and its subsequent annihilation, can heat old, isolated neutron stars. In order for kinetic heating to be achieved, the captured dark matter must underg…
Capture of Dark Matter in Neutron Stars
Giorgio Busoni
The extreme conditions in Neutron Stars make them ideal test facilities for fundamental interactions. A Neutron Star can capture Dark Matter via scattering. As a result of the scat…
