The parameter space of massive axion-like-particles (ALPs) with $m_a \sim {\mathcal O} (100)$ MeV and coupled with nucleons is largely unexplored. Here, we present new constraints in this parameter region. In doing so, we characterize the…

Axion-like particles (ALPs) coupled to nucleons can be efficiently produced in the interior of protoneutron stars (PNS) during supernova (SN) explosions. If these ALPs are also coupled to photons they can convert into gamma rays in the…

We perform long-term general-relativistic neutrino-radiation hydrodynamic simulations for core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) which include the cooling effect induced by the coupling between axion-like particles (ALPs) and photons. We take…

A strong bound on the properties of axion-like particles (ALPs) has been set by assuming that ALPs are emitted by the protoneutron star just before the core-bounce in Galactic core-collapse supernovae, and that these ALPs subsequently…

It was recently pointed out that very energetic subclasses of supernovae (SNe), like hypernovae and superluminous SNe, might host ultra-strong magnetic fields in their core. Such fields may catalyze the production of feebly interacting…

During a core-collapse supernova (SN), axionlike particles (ALPs) could be produced through the Primakoff process and subsequently convert into $\gamma$ rays in the magnetic field of the Milky Way. We do not find evidence for such a…

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…
