DESCRIPTION:TITLE: \nGalactic Axion Factories: Astrophysical Sources and 
 Signals for Axion SearchesAbstract: \nAxions and axion-like particles (AL
 Ps) can have weak couplings to the Standard Model which may be magnified i
 n extreme astrophysical environments\, providing unique and exciting pathw
 ays toward observational signatures. In this talk\, I will discuss several
  exciting ways in which these can manifest. This includes an overview of a
 strophysical light-shining-through-wall setups and novel searches for axio
 n production at the galactic stellar population level. I will then discuss
  further extensions of these ideas in more recent works\, highlighting sea
 rches using compact objects: magnetic white dwarfs\, neutron stars\, and b
 lack holes. Finally\, I will discuss ongoing theoretical and experimental 
 efforts to construct a gamma-ray telescope at Berkeley to look for axions 
 from supernovae. I highlight throughout how these diverse astrophysical en
 vironments provide mechanisms to continue pushing the boundaries on axion 
 parameter space.\n\nhttps://indico.kcl.ac.uk/event/798/
