Multi-messenger astrophysics, a long-anticipated extension to traditional multiwavelength
astronomy, has emerged over the past decade as a distinct discipline providing unique and …

Gamma-ray pulsar halos in the Galaxy

K Fang - Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 - frontiersin.org
Pulsar halos are extended gamma-ray structures generated by electrons and positrons
escaping from pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe), considered a new class of gamma-ray sources …

GeV-scale thermal WIMPs: Not even slightly ruled out

RK Leane, TR Slatyer, JF Beacom, KCY Ng - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
Weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) have long reigned as one of the leading
classes of dark matter candidates. The observed dark matter abundance can be naturally …

Detection of spectral hardenings in cosmic-ray boron-to-carbon and boron-to-oxygen flux ratios with DAMPE

Dampe Collaboration - Science Bulletin, 2022 - Elsevier
Boron nuclei in cosmic rays (CRs) are believed to be mainly produced by the fragmentation
of heavier nuclei, such as carbon and oxygen, via collisions with the interstellar matter …

Using gamma-ray observation of dwarf spheroidal galaxy to test a dark matter model that can interpret the W-boson mass anomaly

BY Zhu, S Li, JG Cheng, RL Li, YF Liang - arXiv preprint arXiv:2204.04688, 2022 - arxiv.org
A recent result from Fermilab suggests that the measured W-boson mass deviates from the
prediction of the Standard Model (SM) with a significance of $> 7\sigma $, and there may …

Dark matter in Hidden Valley models with stable and unstable light dark mesons

H Beauchesne, E Bertuzzo… - Journal of High Energy …, 2019 - Springer
A bstract It is a distinct possibility that a Hidden Valley sector would have a spectrum of light
particles consisting of both stable and unstable dark mesons. The simultaneous presence of …

New search for monochromatic neutrinos from dark matter decay

CE Aisati, M Gustafsson, T Hambye - Physical Review D, 2015 - APS
From data recently reported from the IceCube telescope, we derive new bounds on the
monochromatic neutrino signal produced from dark matter particle decays. In the few TeV to …

First observation of time variation in the solar-disk gamma-ray flux with Fermi

KCY Ng, JF Beacom, AHG Peter, C Rott - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
The solar disk is a bright gamma-ray source. Surprisingly, its flux is about 1 order of
magnitude higher than predicted. As a first step toward understanding the physical origin of …

Solar rays as a complementary probe of dark matter

C Arina, M Backović, J Heisig, M Lucente - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
We show that observations of solar γ rays offer a novel probe of dark matter in scenarios
where interactions with the visible sector proceed via a long-lived mediator. As a proof of …
