The flux of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos observed by the present generation of neutrino detectors has already indicated a few hints of new physics beyond the Standard Model. In this work, we show that high-energy gamma-ray…
We study neutrino conversions in the recently envisaged source of high energy ($E \geq 10^{6}$ GeV) neutrinos, that is, in the vicinity of cosmological gamma-ray burst fireballs (GRB). We consider mainly the possibility of neutrino…
Ultralight axions with axion-photon couplings $g_{a\gamma\gamma} \sim {\rm few} \times 10^{-11}$ GeV$^{-1}$ may resolve a number of astrophysical anomalies, such as unexpected ~TeV transparency, anomalous stellar cooling, and X-ray excesses…
The emission region of $\rm \gamma$-ray bursts (GRBs) is poorly constrained. The uncertainty on the size of the dissipation site spans over 4 orders of magnitude ($\rm 10^{12}-10^{17}$ cm) depending on the unknown energy composition of the…
Axions are a well-motivated dark matter candidate. They may be detectable from radio line emission due to resonant conversion in neutron star magnetospheres. While radio data collection for this signal has begun, further efforts are…
The CIBER collaboration released their first observational data of the Cosmic IR background (CIB) radiation, which has significant excesses at around the wavelength $\sim$ 1 $\mu$m compared to theoretically-inferred values. The amount of…
We discuss implications that can be obtained by searches for neutrinos from the brightest gamma-ray burst, GRB 221009A. We derive constraints on GRB model parameters such as the cosmic-ray loading factor and dissipation radius, taking into…
Acceleration of high-energy hadrons in GRB blast waves will be established if high-energy neutrinos are detected from GRBs. Recent calculations of photomeson neutrino production are reviewed, and new calculations of high-energy neutrinos…
We compute the fluxes of radio photons from conversion of axion-like particle dark matter in cosmic magnetic fields. We find that for axion-like particle masses around $10^{-6}\,$eV and effective coupling constants to photons…
We treat high-energy neutrino production in GRBs. Detailed calculations of photomeson neutrino production are presented for the collapsar model, where internal nonthermal synchrotron radiation is the primary target photon field, and the…
The extreme energetics of the gamma-ray burst (GRB) 990123 has revealed that some of GRBs emit quite a large amount of energy, and total energy release from GRBs seems to change from burst to burst by a factor of 10^{2-3} as E_{gamma, iso}…
In this paper we examine the possibility of dilute axion stars converting to photons in the weak, large-scale magnetic field of the Milky Way and show that they can resonate with the surrounding plasma and produce a sizable signal. We…
In the presence of a magnetic field, axions can convert into photons and vice versa. The phenomenology of the conversion is captured by a system of two coupled Klein-Gordon equations, which, assuming that the axion is relativistic, is…
Gamma Ray Bursts as recent GRB990123 and GRB990510 are observed to occur in cosmic volumes with a corresponding output reaching, for isotropic explosions, energies as large as two solar masses annihilation. These energies are underestimated…
We give a detailed study of axion-photon and photon-axion conversion amplitudes, which enter the analysis of ``light shining through a wall'' experiments. Several different calculational methods are employed and compared, and in all cases…

Gamma rays have been observed from two blazars at TeV energies. One of these, Markarian 421, has been observed also at GeV energies and has roughly equal luminosity per decade at GeV and TeV energies. Photon-photon pair production on the…
Observations suggest that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are produced by the dissipation of the kinetic energy of a relativistic fireball. In this talk, recent work on the production of high energy neutrinos by GRB fireballs is reviewed. A…
The Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 021211 detected by the High Energy Transient Explorer (HETE) II had a simple light-curve in the x-ray and gamma-ray energy bands containing one peak and little temporal fluctuation other than the expected Poisson…
Axion dark matter can resonantly convert into photons in the magnetospheres of neutron stars (NSs). It has recently been shown that radio observations of nearby NSs can therefore provide a highly sensitive probe of the axion parameter…
