Neutron stars as probes of dark sector

I give an overview of my recent work on Neutron Stars constraining the dark sector.
Specifically I will go over: A. asymmetric particle-antiparticle capture of DM leading to a collapse of NS into a black hole, B. Constraints imposed by late time heating of NS on the so-called freeze-in dark matter, C. constraints on mirror neutrons.
