Emission of photons and relativistic axions from axion stars

Journal Article Braaten, Eric ; Mohapatra, Abhishek ; Zhang, Hong - Physical Review D

The number of nonrelativistic axions can be changed by inelastic reactions that produce photons or relativistic axions. Any odd number of axions can annihilate into two photons. Any even number of nonrelativistic axions can scatter into two relativistic axions. We calculate the rate at which axions are lost from axion stars from these inelastic reactions. In dilute systems of axions, the dominant inelastic reaction is axion decay into two photons. In sufficiently dense systems of axions, the dominant inelastic reaction is the scattering of four nonrelativistic axions into two relativistic axions. The scattering of odd numbers of axions into twomore »« less

Colloquium: The physics of axion stars

Journal Article Braaten, Eric ; Zhang, Hong - Reviews of Modern Physics

The particle that makes up the dark matter of the Universe could be an axion or axionlike particle. A collection of axions can condense into a bound Bose-Einstein condensate called an axion star. It is possible that a significant fraction of the axion dark matter is in the form of axion stars. This would make some efforts to identify the axion as the dark matter particle more challenging, but it would also open up new possibilities. Here, the basic properties of axion stars, which can be gravitationally bound or bound by self-interactions, are summarized. Axions are naturally described by amore »« less

Axion bremsstrahlung in dense stars. II. Phonon contributions

Journal Article Nakagawa, M ; Adachi, T ; Kohyama, Y ; ... - Astrophys. J.; (United States)

The energy-loss rate due to axion bremsstrahlung in dense stars such as white dwarfs or neutron stars is calculated by taking into account the phonon contributions in the crystalline lattice state accurately. It is found that the phonon contributions amount to 50-70 percent of the state lattice contributions near the melting temperature. Accurate analytic fitting formulas for the axion bremsstrahlung rate are given. 11 references.
