Indirect detection of Dark Matter annihilating into Dark Glueballs
We examine indirect detection of dark matter that annihilates into dark glueballs, which in turn decay into the Standard Model via a range of...

Features of the Galactic Cosmic Ray Anisotropy in Solar Cycle 24 and Solar Minima 23/24 and 24/25
We study the role of the drift effect in the temporal changes of the anisotropy of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) and the influence of the sector...
