Dark matter (DM) may be captured around a neutron star (NS) through DM-nucleon interactions. We observe that the enhancement of such capturing is particularly significant when DM-nucleon scattering cross-section depends on the relative velocity and/or momentum transfer. This increment could potentially lead to the formation of a black hole within the typical lifetime of the NS. As the black...
Phase transition gravitational waves could be a novel probe for fundamental physics in the near future. Hence, precise calculation of phase transition gravitational waves is essential to revealing many unresolved puzzles in our universe. I will discuss a framework that could allow us to omit some unnecessary approximations and give a relatively more accurate calculation of gravitational waves...
