Particle physics today faces the challenge of explaining the mystery of dark matter, the origin
of matter over anti-matter in the Universe, the origin of the neutrino masses, the apparent …

The dark photon is a massive hypothetical particle that interacts with the Standard Model by
kinetically mixing with the visible photon. For small values of the mixing parameter, dark …

The last decade has seen unprecedented effort in dark matter model building at all mass
scales coupled with the design of numerous new detection strategies. Transformative …

If dark matter is composed of axions, then axion stars form in the cores of dark matter halos.
These stars are unstable above a critical mass, decaying to radio photons that heat the …

A dark photon kinetically mixing with the ordinary photon represents one of the simplest
viable extensions to the standard model, and would induce oscillations with observable …

Dark photons that kinetically mix with the Standard Model photon give rise to new spectral
anisotropies (patchy dark screening) in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) due to …

Recent work has suggested that an additional≲ 6.9 eV per baryon of heating in the
intergalactic medium is needed to reconcile hydrodynamical simulations with Lyman-α forest …

Black hole superradiance is a powerful tool in the search for ultralight bosons. Constraints
on the existence of such particles have been derived from the observation of highly spinning …

We consider resonant wavelike dark matter conversion into low-frequency radio waves in
the Earth's ionosphere. Resonant conversion occurs when the dark matter mass and the …

Dark photons can oscillate into Standard Model (SM) photons via kinetic mixing. The
conversion probability depends sensitively on properties of the ambient background, such …
