A common countermeasure against side-channel attacks on secret key cryptographic implementations is $d$th-order masking, which splits each sensitive variable into $d+1$ random shares. In this paper, maximal leakage bounds on the probability…
If axions or other low-mass pseudoscalars couple to electrons (``fine structure constant'' $\alpha_a$) they are emitted from red giant stars by the Compton process $\gamma+e\to e+a$ and by bremsstrahlung $e+(Z,A)\to (Z,A)+e+a$. We construct…
