The cumulative emission of Axion-Like Particles (ALPs) from all past core-collapse supernovae (SNe) would lead to a diffuse flux with energies ${\mathcal O}(50)$ MeV. We use this to constrain ALPs featuring couplings to photons and to…

Heavy axion-like particles (ALPs), with masses $m_a \gtrsim 100$ keV, coupled with photons, would be copiously produced in a supernova (SN) core via Primakoff process and photon coalescence. Using a state-of-the-art SN model, we revisit the…

Using recent supernova models, I revisit the Supernova 1987a constraints on scalar/pseudoscalar Axion-Like-Particles (ALPs). On the basis of the neutrino detections, the luminosity of ALPs must be $\lesssim 5\times10^{52} \,\mathrm{erg}/s$…
