The sources and fluxes of superGZK neutrinos, $E>10^{20}$ eV, are discussed. The most promising sources are reionization bright phase, topological defects, superheavy dark matter and mirror matter. The energy of neutrinos can be above the…
Theoretically, the electric charge of the tau neutrino may be non-zero. The experimental bound on the electric charge of the tau neutrino is many orders of magnitude weaker than that for any other known neutrino. If the tau neutrino does…
Dark matter accumulates in the center of the Earth as the planet plows through the dark matter halo in the Milky Way. Possible annihilation of dark matter to Standard Model particles can be probed in indirect dark matter searches. Among…
