In a recent research, just published in Nature Astronomy, we have found a connection between the supermassive black hole (SMBH) and the galaxy that host them, despite the huge difference in scale between both astrophysical objects. Using Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) and optical survey images, we found a weak but significant alignment between the direction of the jets emitted by the...
Cold dark matter axions produced in the post-inflationary scenario serve as clear targets for their experimental detection, since it is in principle possible to give a sharp prediction for their mass once we understand precisely how they are produced from the decay of global cosmic strings in the early Universe.
We performed a dedicated analysis of the spectrum of axions radiated from...
