Wim de Boer, Karlsruhe PPC2007, Texas A&M Univ., May. 16, IF DM particles are thermal relics from early universe they can annihilate with cross section as large as = cm 3 /s which implies an enormous rate of gamma rays from π 0 decays (produced in quark fragmentation) (Galaxy=10 40 higher rate than any accelerator) Expect large fraction of energetic Galactic gamma rays to come from DMA in this case. Remaining ones from p CR +p GAS -> π 0 +X, π 0 ->2γ This means: Galactic gamma rays have 2 components with a shape KNOWN from the 2 BEST studied reactions in accelerators: background known from fixed target exp.

Wim de Boer, Karlsruhe PPC2007, Texas A&M Univ., May. 16, Bergstrom et al. astro-ph/ , Abstract: we investigate the viability of the model using the DarkSUSY package to compute the gamma-ray and antiproton fluxes. We are able to show that their (=WdB et al) model is excluded by a wide margin from the measured flux of antiprotons. Problem with DarkSUSY (DS): 1)Flux of antiprotons/gamma in DarkSUSY: O(1) from DMA. However, O(10 -2 ) from LEP data Reason: DS has diffusion box with isotropic diffusion -> DMA fills up box with high density of antiprotons 2) More realistic models have anisotropic diffusion. E.g. spiral galaxies have magnetic fields perpendicular to disk-> antiprotons may spiral quickly out of Galaxy. In addition: convection of particles by CR pressure. Does antiproton data exclude interpretation of EGRET data?

Wim de Boer, Karlsruhe PPC2007, Texas A&M Univ., May. 16, Summary >10σ EGRET excess shows intriguing hint that: WIMP is thermal relic with expected annihilation into quark pairs SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION of annihilation signal is signature for DMA which clearly shows that EGRET excess is tracer of DM by fact that one can CONSTRUCT ROTATION CURVE FROM GAMMA RAYS. DM becomes visible by gamma rays from fragmentation (30-40 gamma rays of few GeV pro annihilation from π 0 decays) Results rather model independent, since only KNOWN spectral shapes of signal and background used, NO model dependent calculations of abs.fluxes. Different models or unknown experimental problems may change boost factor and/or WIMP mass, BUT NOT the distribution in the sky. DM interpretation strongly supported N-body simulation of Canis Major dwarf and its tidal streams coinciding with the EGRET excess EGRET shows lots of DM mass in the tidal streams -> GAS FLARING
Wim de Boer, Karlsruhe PPC2007, Texas A&M Univ., May. 16, Summary on WIMP searches Indirect detection: (SPACE EXPERIMENTS) intriguing hint for signals from DMA for 60 GeV WIMP from gamma rays Direct detection: (UNDERGROUND OBSERVATORIES) expected to observe signal in near future IF we are not in VOID of clumpy DM halo Direct production:(ACCELERATORS (LHC )): cannot produce WIMPs directly (too small cross section), BUT IF WIMPs are Lightest Supersymmetric Particle (LSP) THEN WIMPs observable in DECAY of SUSY particles IF EVERY METHOD measures SAME WIMP mass, then PERFECT. In this case Dark Matter is the supersymmetric partner of the CMB!
