Constraining Decaying Dark Matter with Fermi LAT Gamma-rays

Le Zhang, Christoph Weniger, Luca Maccione +2

High energy electrons and positrons from decaying dark matter can produce a significant flux of gamma rays by inverse Compton off low energy photons in the interstellar radiation f…

Possible cosmogenic neutrino constraints on Planck-scale Lorentz violation

David M. Mattingly, Luca Maccione, Matteo Galaverni +2

We study, within an effective field theory framework, $O(E^{2}/\Mpl^{2})$ Planck-scale suppressed Lorentz invariance violation (LV) effects in the neutrino sector, whose size we pa…

Hadron-gamma discrimination from an orbital UHECR observatory

A. D. Supanitsky, G. Medina-Tanco, K. Asano +10

The identification of very high energy photons is of great importance for the understanding of the origin of extreme energy cosmic rays (EECR). Several can be the sources of high e…

Development of neutrino initiated cascades at mid and high altitudes in the atmosphere

A. D. Supanitsky, G. Medina-Tanco, K. Asano +9

Neutrinos are a very promising messenger at tens of EeV and above. They can be produced by several channels, namely as by products of hadronic interactions at the sources, as the m…

Galactic Signatures of Decaying Dark Matter

Le Zhang, Javier Redondo, Guenter Sigl

If dark matter decays into electrons and positrons, it can affect Galactic radio emissions and the local cosmic ray fluxes. We propose a new, more general analysis of constraints o…

Constraining resonant photon-axion conversions in the Early Universe

Alessandro Mirizzi, Javier Redondo, Guenter Sigl

The presence of a primordial magnetic field would have induced resonant conversions between photons and axion-like particles (ALPs) during the thermal history of the Universe. Thes…

Collective flavor transitions of supernova neutrinos

Guenter Sigl, Ricard Tomas, Andreu Esteban-Pretel +4

We give a very brief overview of collective effects in neutrino oscillations in core collapse supernovae where refractive effects of neutrinos on themselves can considerably modify…

Microwave Background Constraints on Mixing of Photons with Hidden Photons

Alessandro Mirizzi, Javier Redondo, Guenter Sigl

Various extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of hidden photons kinetically mixing with the ordinary photon. This mixing leads to oscillations between photons and…
