A new set of cutting rules reduces finite-temperature self-energies to tree-level rates, revealing O(1) corrections from in-medium interference diagrams.
ALP-to-photon conversion near four pulsars produces mostly sub-MeV emission: Fermi-LAT is insensitive to the channel, COMPTEL data already exclude new parameter space at high ALP mass, and COSI could probe much more.
Axion-photon oscillations generate bipartite mode entanglement with maximal values at resonance, and quantum speed limits are derived for both axion-photon and neutrino systems.
