Description

We propose a novel method to study the ultra-light bosons, where compact rotating objects undergo the phenomenon of quenched superradiance to create gravitational waves and neutrino flux signals. The neutrino flux results from appropriate coupling between the ultra-light bosons and the neutrinos. We consider a heavy sterile neutrino generation from ultralight scalar, which later results in active neutrino flux through neutrino oscillations, whereas we consider active neutrino generation directly from the vector bosons. We study the intertwining of gravitational waves and neutrino flux signals produced from a single source and elaborate if and when the signals can be detected in existing and upcoming experiments in a direct manner.
