While the ATLAS/CMS experiments discovered a Standard Model-like Higgs boson at LHC, no compelling new physics signal has been seen yet. Lack of experimental evidence of $sparticles$ has pushed the lower limit on their masses in the multi-TeV regime. LHC searches for Weak scale supersymmetry (SUSY) show that gluinos should lie beyond 2.2 TeV and top squarks should lie beyond 1.1 TeV. Such high...
The dense nuclear matter present in neutron star cores as well as the remnant of a neutron star merger may serve as an ideal environment for the production of axions or other BSM particles. In this presentation I will review two topics: the possible signals of axions in the photon spectrum of magnetars and the role of BSM particles in neutron star mergers. Axions may be produced in the...
