Prospects on detection of the Fermi Bubbles with CTAO
Francesco Xotta, Nina Bavdaž, Christopher Eckner +3
In 2010, the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope observed two gamma-ray emitting structures, the Fermi Bubbles (FBs), that extend up to 55° above and below the Galactic plane and that…
Stellar-like Galactic center excess challenges particle dark matter
Silvia Manconi, Christopher Eckner, Francesca Calore +1
The Galactic Center (GC) is potentially hosting the largest indirect signal from particle dark matter (DM), which in many well-motivated models would produce gamma rays as their fi…
Probing the Parameter Space of Axion-Like Particles Using Simulation-Based Inference
Pooja Bhattacharjee, Christopher Eckner, Gabrijela Zaharijas +2
Axion-like particles (ALPs), hypothetical pseudoscalar particles that couple to photons, are among the most actively investigated candidates for new physics beyond the Standard Mod…
Prospects for dark matter observations in dwarf spheroidal galaxies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +491
The dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) orbiting the Milky Way are widely regarded as systems supported by velocity dispersion against self-gravity, and as prime targets for the sear…
Lecture Notes: WISPs in gamma-ray astrophysics
Francesca Calore, Christopher Eckner
These lecture notes provide an overview of high-energy astrophysical processes involving axions, axion-like particles (ALPs), and other weakly interacting slim particles (WISPs) fo…
A robust neural determination of the source-count distribution of the Fermi-LAT sky at high latitudes
Christopher Eckner, Noemi Anau Montel, Florian List +2
Over the past 16 years, the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) has significantly advanced our view of the GeV gamma-ray sky, yet several key questions remain - such as the compositio…
Detecting dark matter sub-halos in the Galactic plane with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
Christopher Eckner, Veronika Vodeb, Tejas Satheesh +4
Numerous observations confirm the existence of dark matter (DM) at astrophysical and cosmological scales. Theory and simulations of galaxy formation predict that DM should cluster…
