SUMMARY:"Multi-messenger Probes of New Physics: Dark Matter"
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Yu-Dai Tsai\, Cornell University\n\nPart of the HET S
	eminar Series.\n\nDark matter (DM) that implodes neutron stars (NSs) may ex
	plain the paucity of pulsars in the Milky Way galactic center\, the source 
	of r-process elements\, and the origin of fast-radio bursts. We identify ne
	w astrophysical signatures of NS-imploding DM\, which could decisively test
	 these hypotheses in the next few years. The use of distribution of NS merg
	ers in the galaxies\, in particular\, will allow us to probe DM-nucleon int
	eraction cross-sections 4 to 10 orders of magnitude better than the direct 
	detection experiments in a few year timescale. We also discuss other direct
	 and indirect phenomena including "Quiet Kilonovae" and "Black Mergers" fro
	m the implosions. This talk will be mainly based on arXiv:1706.00001
