In this article, we study in a little more detail the angular kinetic-energy distribution of halo Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) and consider two simple modifications with the Solar Galactic orbital velocity in our Monte Carlo simulations of the 3-dimensional WIMP velocity as the first trial of future investigations on distinguishing models of the Galactic structure of Dark Matter particles by using directional direct detection data.

The X-ray emission of O-type stars was first discovered in the early days of the Einstein satellite. Since then many different surveys have confirmed that the ratio of X-ray to bolometric luminosity in O-type stars is roughly constant, but there is a
paucity of studies that account for detailed information on spectral and wind properties of O-stars. Recently a significant sample of O stars within our Galaxy was spectroscopically identified and presented in the Galactic O-Star Spectroscopic Survey (GOSS). At the same time, a large high-fidelity catalog of X-ray sources detected by the XMM-Newton X-ray telescope was released. Here we present the X-ray catalog of O stars with known spectral types and investigate the dependence of their X-ray properties on spectral type as well as stellar and wind parameters. We find that, among the GOSS sample, 127 O-stars have a unique XMM-Newton source counterpart and a Gaia data release 2 (DR2) association. Terminal velocities are known for a subsample of 35 of these stars. We confirm that the X-ray luminosities of dwarf and giant O stars correlate with their bolometric luminosity. For the subsample of O stars with measure terminal velocities we find that the X-ray luminosities of dwarf and giant O stars also correlate with wind parameters. However, we find that these correlations break down for supergiant stars. Moreover, we show that supergiant stars are systematically harder in X-rays compared to giant and dwarf O-type stars. We find that the X-ray luminosity depends on spectral type, but seems to be independent of whether the stars are single or in a binary system. Finally, we show that the distribution of log(Lx/Lbol) in our sample stars is non-Gaussian, with the peak of the distribution at log(Lx/Lbol) around -6.6.
There remain significant uncertainties in the origin and evolution of black holes in binary systems, in particular regarding their birth sites and the influence of natal kicks. These are long-standing issues, but their debate has been reinvigorated i
n the era of gravitational wave detections and the improving precision of astrometric measurements. Using recent and archival characterisation of Galactic black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs), we report here an apparent anticorrelation between P{orb} (system orbital periods) and scatter in z (elevation above the Galactic plane). The absence of long period sources at high z is not an obvious observational bias, and two possible explanatory scenarios are qualitatively explored: (1) a disc origin for BHXBs followed by natal kicks producing the scatter in z, with only the tightest binaries preferentially surviving strong kicks; (2) a halo origin, with P{orb} shortening through dynamical interactions in globular clusters (GCs). For the latter case, we show a correspondence in z-scatter between BHXBs and the GCs with most compact core radii of <0.1pc. However, the known absence of outbursting BHXB transients within Galactic GCs remains puzzling in this case, in contrast to the multitude of known GC neutron star XRBs. These results provide an interesting observational constraint for any black hole binary evolutionary model to satisfy.
In this article, I present our (Monte Carlo) simulation results of the angular distribution of the 3-dimensional WIMP velocity, in particular, a possible annual modulation and the diurnal modulation proposed in literature, for different underground laboratories.
We investigate whether the sky rate of Fast Radio Bursts depends on Galactic latitude using the first catalog of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) detected by the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment Fast Radio Burst (CHIME/FRB) Project. We first se
lect CHIME/FRB events above a specified sensitivity threshold in consideration of the radiometer equation, and then compare these detections with the expected cumulative time-weighted exposure using Anderson-Darling and Kolmogrov-Smirnov tests. These tests are consistent with the null hypothesis that FRBs are distributed without Galactic latitude dependence ($p$-values distributed from 0.05 to 0.99, depending on completeness threshold). Additionally, we compare rates in intermediate latitudes ($|b| < 15^circ$) with high latitudes using a Bayesian framework, treating the question as a biased coin-flipping experiment -- again for a range of completeness thresholds. In these tests the isotropic model is significantly favored (Bayes factors ranging from 3.3 to 14.2). Our results are consistent with FRBs originating from an isotropic population of extragalactic sources.
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) and normal non-recycled pulsars are both detected in $gamma$-rays. However, it appears that a much larger fraction of known energetic and nearby MSPs are detected in $gamma$-rays, in comparison with normal pulsars, thereby
making undetected $gamma$-ray MSPs exceptions. In this paper, we demonstrate that the viewing angles (i.e. between the pulsar spin axis and the line of sight) are well described by the orbital inclination angles which, for binary MSPs with helium white dwarf companions, can be determined using the relationship between the orbital period and the white dwarf mass. We use the predicted viewing angles, in complement with values obtained from other constraints when available, to identify the causes of non-detection of energetic and nearby MSPs from the point of view of beaming geometry and orientation. We find evidence for slightly different viewing angle distributions, and postulate that energetic and nearby MSPs are mainly undetected in $gamma$-rays simply because they are seen under unfavourable (i.e. small) viewing angles. We finally discuss the magnetic fields of $gamma$-ray detected pulsars and show that pulsars which are efficient at converting their rotational energy into $gamma$-ray emission may have overestimated dipolar magnetic field strengths.
