186. DarkSide-20k and the Direct Dark Matter Search with Liquid Argon

Thomas Nathan Thorpe (Gran Sasso Science Institute (IT))

02/12/2019, 12:00

Dark matter

Oral

Dual phase noble liquid Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) offer a competitive and scalable way to search for dark matter directly via elastically scattering off of detector target nuclei and electrons. The Global Argon Dark Matter Collaboration (GADMC) is undertaking an ambitious global program from the extraction and purification of Underground Argon (UAr), depleted in 39Ar which reduces the...

213. WIMP dark matter searches with NaI: Status of the SABRE experiment and SUPL laboratory

Gregory Lane (Australian National University)

02/12/2019, 12:30

Dark matter

Oral

For almost 20 years, the DAMA experiment has observed annual modulations
in the signal from heavily-shielded, ultra-pure NaI scintillator
crystals housed in the Gran Sasso underground laboratory. This
modulation is consistent with expectations for the motion of the earth
through a galactic dark matter halo, but is in conflict with results
from other dark matter direct detection...

Shivani Bhandari

03/12/2019, 12:30

Extragalactic sources

Oral

Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) which are exotic millisecond duration radio bursts, are currently the hot topic in the field of transient astronomy. The discovery of FRBs has stimulated a range of theoretical investigations to understand their origin and physics as well as observational efforts around the world to search for more such bursts. In the recent decade or so, we have learned a lot about...

Shunsaku Horiuchi (Virginia Tech)

04/12/2019, 11:30

Galactic sources

Oral

The center of the Milky Way galaxy provides a promising target to search for signatures of dark matter self-annihilation or decay into Standard Model particles. However, competing high-energy astrophysical processes are complex and must be modeled with care. I will review on-going studies of the so-called "Galactic Center Excess" discovered in Fermi-LAT data. I will discuss recent developments...

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) was installed aboard the International Space Station on May 19, 2011. In eight years AMS has collected over 145 billion cosmic rays. AMS conducts searches for the origin of antimatter, dark matter, and new phenomena through the precision measurement of cosmic rays. The latest AMS results on cosmic ray positrons, electrons, antiprotons, protons, nuclei, and...

Dr Roberta Zanin (CTAO gGmbH)

06/12/2019, 09:00

Gamma rays

Oral

Very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astroparticle physics is a relatively young field, and
observations over the past decade have surprisingly revealed almost two hundred VHE
emitters which appear to act as cosmic particle accelerators. These sources are an
important component of the Universe, influencing the evolution of stars and galaxies. At the
same time, they also act as a probe of...

63. Linking TeV and THz astronomy (gamma-ray and radio astrophysics connections)

Dr Gavin Rowell (University of Adelaide)

06/12/2019, 09:30

Gamma rays

Oral

Astrophysical gamma-ray sources are sites of extreme particle acceleration. For gamma-ray sources in our galaxy, a key ingredient in understanding the nature of the underlying particles (leptons and/or hadrons) is knowledge of the interstellar gas (neutral and ionised), often traced by high frequency radio telescopes. For example, this gas can act as a target for cosmic ray collisions. In this...

197. Exploring the Universe with High Energy Neutrinos

Gary Hill (University of Adelaide)

06/12/2019, 10:00

Neutrinos

Oral

The age of high energy neutrino astronomy has arrived, and the Universe has begun to reveal its secrets. IceCube has detected and characterised the astrophysical neutrino flux, and revealed evidence of the first source – the blazar TXS 0506+056 – which appears to be a cosmic particle accelerator. Upgraded and new detectors (IceCube Upgrade, KM3NET, IceCube-Gen2) are in various stages of...

189. Time-Dependent Models for Cosmic Rays and Diffuse Emissions from the Galaxy

Troy Porter (Stanford University)

06/12/2019, 11:00

Cosmic rays

Oral

Cosmic ray data collected by experiments like Pamela, AMS-02, CALET, and
DAMPE show many spectral features that are not described by simple power
laws. These features may be giving information on the time-dependent
activity of individual cosmic ray sources, but the interpretation is
unclear. Because the same cosmic rays are interacting also in the
interstellar medium, these data are also...
