An Absence of Neutrinos Associated with Cosmic Ray Acceleration in Gamma-Ray Bursts
ArXiv 1204.4219 (2012)
Abstract:
Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) have been proposed as a leading candidate for acceleration of ultra high-energy cosmic rays, which would be accompanied by emission of TeV neutrinos produced in proton-photon interactions during acceleration in the GRB fireball. Two analyses using data from two years of the IceCube detector produced no evidence for this neutrino emission, placing strong constraints on models of neutrino and cosmic-ray production in these sources.LHC and Tevatron bounds on the dark matter direct detection cross-section for vector mediators
ArXiv 1204.3839 (2012)
Abstract:
We study the interactions of a new spin-1 mediator that connects the Standard Model to dark matter. We constrain its decay channels using monojet and monophoton searches, as well as searches for resonances in dijet, dilepton and diboson final states including those involving a possible Higgs. We then interpret the resulting limits as bounds on the cross-section for dark matter direct detection without the need to specify a particular model. For mediator masses between 300 and 1000 GeV these bounds are considerably stronger than the ones obtained under the assumption that the mediator can be integrated out.LHC and Tevatron bounds on the dark matter direct detection cross-section for vector mediators
