Dark matter in compact stars

J Bramante, N Raj - Physics Reports, 2024 - Elsevier
WDs and neutron stars are far-reaching and multi-faceted laboratories in the hunt for dark
matter. We review detection prospects of wave-like, particulate, macroscopic and black hole …

Type Ia Supernova Explosions in Binary Systems: A Review
