Neutrino signals from Neutron Star implosions to Black Holes [CEA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/2304.06746


We calculate the neutrino luminosity in an astrophysical scenario where dark matter is captured by a neutron star which eventually implodes to form a low mass black hole. The Trojan horse scenario involves the collapse of a neutron star (NS) due to the accumulation of a critical amount of dark matter (DM) during its lifetime. As a result, a central disk forms out of the ejected material with a finite radial extension, density, temperature, and lepton fraction, producing fainter neutrino luminosities and colder associated spectra than found in a regular core-collapse supernova. The emitted gravitational wave (GW) signal from the imploding NS should be detectable at ultra-high $\gtrsim 0.1$ GHz frequencies.
