Abstract The minimum testable dark matter (DM) mass for almost all DM signatures in celestial bodies is determined by the rate at which evaporates. evaporation has previously been calculated assuming a competition between gravitational potential of object, and thermal kicks from celestial-body matter. We point out new effect, where mediators with range larger than interparticle spacing induce force proportional to density gradient objects, forming an barrier DM. This effect can be so...
Abstract We show that Milky Way white dwarfs are excellent targets for dark matter (DM) detection. Using Fermi and H.E.S.S. Galactic center gamma-ray data, we investigate sensitivity to DM annihilating within into long-lived or boosted mediators producing detectable gamma rays. Depending on the distribution, set new constraints spin-independent scattering cross section down 10 -45 -10 -41 cm 2 in sub-GeV mass range, which is multiple orders of magnitude stronger than existing limits. For a...
It was recently demonstrated that asymmetric dark matter can ignite supernovae by collecting and collapsing inside lone sub-Chandrasekhar mass white dwarfs, this may be the cause of Type Ia supernovae. A ball accumulated a dwarf under its own weight, sheds enough gravitational potential energy through scattering with nuclei, to spark fusion reactions precede supernova explosion. In article we elaborate on mechanism use it place new bounds interactions between nucleons for masses $m_{X} =...
Abstract Dark matter can be captured by celestial objects and accumulate at their centers, forming a core of dark that collapse to small black hole, provided the annihilation rate is or zero. If nascent hole big enough, it will grow consume star planet. We calculate accumulation in Sun Earth, use continued existence place novel constraints on high mass asymmetric interactions. also identify detail less destructive signatures: newly-formed enough evaporate via Hawking radiation, resulting an...
Large composite dark matter states source a scalar binding field that, when coupled to Standard Model nucleons, provides potential under which nuclei recoil and accelerate energies capable of ionization, radiation, thermonuclear reactions. We show that these dynamics are detectable for nucleon couplings as small $g_n \sim 10^{-17}$ at experiments, where the greatest sensitivity is attained by considering Migdal effect. also explore Type-Ia supernovae planetary heating possible means discover...
Neutron stars serve as excellent next-generation thermal detectors of dark matter, heated by the scattering and annihilation matter accelerated to relativistic speeds in their deep gravitational wells. However, dynamics neutron star cores are uncertain, making it difficult at present unequivocally compute this region. On other hand, physics an outer layer star, crust, is more robustly understood. We show that solely with low-density crust still kinetically heats infrared temperatures...
A new dynamic is identified between dark matter and nuclei. Nuclei accelerated to MeV energies by the internal potential of composite can undergo nuclear fusion. This effect arises in simple models made heavy fermions bound a light scalar field. Cosmologies detection prospects are explored for composites that catalyze reactions underground detectors stars, including bremsstrahlung radiation from nuclei scattering against electrons hot plasma formed interior. If discovered collected, this...
Dark photons are a well-motivated candidate for dark matter, but their detection becomes challenging ultralight masses with both experimental and astrophysical probes. In this work, we propose new approach to explore regime through the inverse Compton scattering of cosmic ray electrons positrons. We show process generates potentially observable background radiation that is most prominent at frequencies below MHz. compute effect using latest models radio absorption maps. Comparing it...

Abstract We present a new inelastic dark matter search: neutron stars in matter-rich environments capture which, for interstate mass splittings between about 45 - 285 MeV, will annihilate away before becoming fully trapped inside the object. This means sizable fraction of particles can while being outside star, producing star-focused gamma-rays and neutrinos. analyze this effect first time target star population Galactic Center, where large content makes signal most significant.

Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in EEG-based wearable classifiers of emotions, which could enable the real-time monitoring patients suffering from neurological disorders such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), or Alzheimer's. The hope is that emotion would facilitate patients' social integration and lead to improved healthcare outcomes for them their loved ones. Yet spite direct relevance neuro-medicine, hardware platforms classification...

Dark kinetic heating of neutron stars has been previously studied as a promising dark matter detection avenue. Kinetic occurs when is sped up to relativistic speeds in the gravitational well high-escape velocity objects, and deposits energy after becoming captured by object, thereby increasing its temperature. We show that can be significant even objects with low-escape velocities, such exoplanets brown dwarfs, discovery potential searches. This occur if there long-range force, creating...

Abstract Light bosonic dark matter can form gravitationally bound states known as boson stars. In this work, we explore a new signature of these objects interacting with the interstellar medium (ISM). We show how small effective couplings between and nucleon lead to potential that accelerates ISM baryons they transit star, making within radiate at high rate energy. The low density, however, implies majority Galactic stars will be too faint observable through effect. By contrast, diffuse...
