Description

In indirect dark matter searches, the current status quo in presenting limits is to quote the simplest assumption of annihilation rates wherein there is one annihilation channel. We will discuss using a triangle based visualization that extends beyond this, allowing for constraints on dark matter mass to be shown for a more realistic assumption of multiple annihilation channels being open. As a demonstration of this visualization technique, we look at results from the Fermi-LAT telescope.
