abstract
We show that stars in the inner parsec of the Milky Way can be significantly affected by dark matter annihilation, producing population-level effects that are visible in a Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram. We establish the dark HR diagram, where stars lie on a new stable $\textit{dark main sequence}$ with similar luminosities, but lower temperatures, than the standard main sequence. The dark matter density in these stars continuously replenishes, granting these stars immortality and solving multiple stellar anomalies. Upcoming telescopes could detect the dark main sequence, offering a new dark matter discovery avenue.

Complementary Planetary Spectroscopy Probes of Dark Matter
Dark matter annihilation energy deposited in planetary atmospheres and interiors, compared against existing UV airglow and heat flow measurements, yields new sub-GeV scattering constraints and long-lived mediator reach.

Impact of Sub-MeV Dark Matter on the Cooling of Pulsating White Dwarfs
Sub-MeV dark matter scattering, capture, and evaporation remove at most about 1e22 erg/s from the pulsating white dwarf G117-B15A, too little to explain its excess cooling, while Galactic Center white dwarfs could pro...
