Comment on Dark Matter Capture in Neutron Stars with Exotic Phases

Abstract

In this short paper, we argue the issue on dark matter capture in neutron stars. After summarizing the whole scenario and the introduction of previous studies along this line, we propose some potentially important effects due to the appearance of exotic phases such as neutron superfluidity, meson condensation and quark superconductivity. Those effects might be sizable and alter the previous results.
