Constraints on Axion-like Particles from a Hard $X$-ray Observation of Betelgeuse

no code implementations18 Sep 2020 Mengjiao Xiao, Kerstin M. Perez, Maurizio Giannotti, Oscar Straniero, Alessandro Mirizzi, Brian W. Grefenstette, Brandon M. Roach, Melania Nynka

We use the first observation of Betelgeuse in hard $X$-rays to perform a novel search for axion-like particles (ALPs).

Bounds on axion-like particles from the diffuse supernova flux

no code implementations26 Aug 2020 Francesca Calore, Pierluca Carenza, Maurizio Giannotti, Joerg Jaeckel, Alessandro Mirizzi

ALPs coupled only to photons are produced in the SN core via the Primakoff process, and then converted into gamma rays in the Galactic magnetic field.

Fast Neutrino Flavor Instability in the Neutron-star Convection Layer of Three-dimensional Supernova Models

1 code implementation30 Nov 2019 Robert Glas, H. -Thomas Janka, Francesco Capozzi, Manibrata Sen, Basudeb Dasgupta, Alessandro Mirizzi, Guenter Sigl

The transport solution does not provide the angular distributions of the neutrino fluxes, which are crucial to track the fast flavor instability.

Improved axion emissivity from a supernova via nucleon-nucleon bremsstrahlung

no code implementations27 Jun 2019 Pierluca Carenza, Tobias Fischer, Maurizio Giannotti, Gang Guo, Gabriel Martinez-Pinedo, Alessandro Mirizzi

We find that the axion emissivity is reduced by over an order of magnitude with respect to the basic OPE calculation, after all these effects are accounted for.

The Fermi Large Area Telescope as a Galactic Supernovae Axionscope

no code implementations8 Sep 2016 Manuel Meyer, Maurizio Giannotti, Alessandro Mirizzi, Jan Conrad, Miguel Sanchez-Conde

In a Galactic core-collapse supernova (SN), axionlike particles (ALPs) could be emitted via the Primakoff process and eventually convert into $\gamma$ rays in the magnetic field of the Milky Way.

Revisiting the SN1987A gamma-ray limit on ultralight axion-like particles

no code implementations14 Oct 2014 Alexandre Payez, Carmelo Evoli, Tobias Fischer, Maurizio Giannotti, Alessandro Mirizzi, Andreas Ringwald

We revise the bound from the supernova SN1987A on the coupling of ultralight axion-like particles (ALPs) to photons.

Revisiting the bound on axion-photon coupling from Globular Clusters

no code implementations23 Jun 2014 Adrian Ayala, Inma Dominguez, Maurizio Giannotti, Alessandro Mirizzi, Oscar Straniero

We derive a strong bound on the axion-photon coupling $g_{a\gamma}$ from the analysis of a sample of 39 Galactic Globular Clusters.

Microwave Background Constraints on Mixing of Photons with Hidden Photons

2 code implementations30 Dec 2008 Alessandro Mirizzi, Javier Redondo, Guenter Sigl

Various extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of hidden photons kinetically mixing with the ordinary photon.
