Abstract

<p>Recently, temperature observations of neutron stars have gained attention as a means of exploring physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The cooling of isolated neutron stars, through neutrino and electromagnetic radiation, is understood as the standard cooling theory, which generally aligns with observational data. However, the presence of hypothetical particles such as axions and dark matter, predicted by theories that extend the Standard Model, could alter this cooling behavior. Axions, for example, increase cooling rates, while dark matter interactions could lead to additional heating. By comparing revised theoretical predictions with observed temperature evolution, scientists hope to detect signs of these elusive particles.</p>
