Description
We know that people look for high energy neutrinos from WIMP annihilation in the sun, but are there any regions in the universe where the accretion of dark matter onto stars might be rapid enough to make a significant difference to the structure of the stars themselves? We will address this question and, time permitting, talk about possible effects upon stars, white dwarfs and neutron stars.
