Neutron stars harbour matter under extreme conditions, providing a unique testing ground for fundamental interactions.
Dark matter can be captured by neutron stars via scattering, where kinetic energy is transferred to the star.
This can have a number of observational consequences, such as theheating of old neutron stars to infra-red temperatures.
Previous treatments of the capture process have employed various approximation or simplifications.
We present here an improved treatment of dark matter capture, valid for a wide dark matter mass range, that correctly incorporates all relevant physical effects.
These include gravitational focusing, a fully relativistic scattering treatment, Pauli blocking, neutron star opacity and multi-scattering effects.
We provide general expressions that enable the exact capture rate to be calculated numerically, and derive simplified expressions that are valid for particular interaction types or mass regimes and that greatly increase the computational efficiency.
Our formalism is applicable to the scattering of dark matter from any neutron star constituents, or to the capture of dark matter in other compact objects.
We apply these results to scattering of dark matter from neutrons, protons, leptonic targets, as well as exotic Baryo
