22. Indirect Searches for Dark Matter with the Fermi LAT

Alex Drlica-Wagner

30/01/2013, 09:45

Since its launch in 2008, the Fermi LAT has made significant progress towards constraining the standard “WIMP miracle” dark matter scenario. In this talk, I will review recent results from the LAT with a focus on current constraints, tentative signals, and associated uncertainties. I will discuss how an improved understanding the LAT instrument and gamma-ray astrophysics will help to...

I will discuss recent work on statistical methods that can be used to test the hypothesis of extremely faint dark matter signals contained in gamma-ray data. I will also discuss recent results on searches for dark matter annihilation emission from dwarf galaxies using data from Fermi and VERITAS

20. Light dark matter: motivation, theory, ongoing search

Alex Kusenko

01/02/2013, 18:15

I will review the motivation, the models, and some astrophysical clues for dark matter in the keV mass range, including sterile neutrinos and string/supersymmetry moduli. I will also discuss the results of an ongoing search for this form of dark matter using dedicated observations on all three X-ray telescopes: Chandra, Suzaku, and XMM-Newton.

53. The Quest for Dark Matter Signals and the gamma-ray sky: the low energy window

Aldo Morselli

02/02/2013, 09:45

To uncover the dark matter, to connect what is astrophysically observed to what will be seen as new particles produced in the LHC, we need new measurements. The Fermi Large Area Telescope is providing the measurements of high energy cosmic ray electrons, positrons and gammas with unprecedented accuracy. These measurements represent a unique probe for studying the origin and diffusive...
