Dark Matter could be detected indirectly through the observation of neutrinos produced in self-annihilations or decays. Searches for such neutrino signals have resulted in some of the most stringent constraints on the lifetime of heavy dark matter and world best limits on spin-dependent scattering with matter. Searches have made significant progress in sensitivity through new search...

Annihilation of WIMPs into gamma-rays could provide an observable signal in future ground-based gamma-ray experiments like CTA over most of the natural parameter space for a thermal relic. High energy gamma-ray observations provide key constraints on WIMP DM, and together with complimentary direct detection and collider-based searches comprise a comprehensive program for
either confirming or...
