Supermassive black hole binaries source gravitational waves measured by Pulsar Timing Arrays. The frequency spectrum of this stochastic background is predicted more precisely than its amplitude. We argue that Dark Matter friction can suppress the spectrum around nHz frequencies, where it is measured, allowing to derive robust and significant bounds on the Dark Matter density, which, in turn, controls indirect detection signals from galactic centers. A precise spectrum of gravitational waves would translate in a tomography of the DM density profile, potentially probing DM particle-physics effects that induce a characteristic DM density profile, such as DM annihilations or de Broglie wavelength.

Particle production from bubble collisions
Heavy particles are produced in bubble-wall collisions by on-shell partonic scatterings, not by off-shell decay of the classical field, so the earlier rates and their phenomenological signals are parametrically overestimated.

Scattering of wave dark matter by supermassive black holes
A first-principles scattering calculation explains the co-rotating wave dark matter profile around supermassive black hole binaries and predicts resonant power peaks that could imprint on the pulsar timing array spectrum.

Exploring Ultralight Dark Matter Self-Coupling via the Gravitational Wave Background
Soliton dynamical friction from self-interacting ultralight dark matter can create dips in the nanohertz gravitational wave spectrum, and current PTA measurements may already constrain the self-coupling strength for m...

Tidal Love numbers and quasi-normal modes of the Schwarzschild-Hernquist black hole
For a Schwarzschild black hole in a relativistic Hernquist dark matter halo, quasinormal-mode frequency shifts scale as (MDM/rs)^(3/2) rather than linearly, while tidal Love numbers are small and sensitive to the choi...

The power of SKA to Constrain cosmological gravitational-wave backgrounds below the astrophysical foreground noise
Cosmological gravitational wave backgrounds from phase transitions, domain walls, and condensate fragmentation are capped far below the astrophysical foreground by requiring that compact dark matter subhalos, which SK...

Probing Self-Interacting Dark Matter via Gravitational-Wave Background from Eccentric Supermassive Black Hole Mergers
Eccentric supermassive black hole binaries embedded in self-interacting dark matter produce a suppressed nanohertz gravitational-wave background, and current PTA data bound the cross section at sigma/mchi less than ab...
