Extragalactic gamma ray Background from EGRET Improved foreground model (GALPROP) removes enigmatic Galactic halo component and leads to new EGB spectrum (Strong, Moskalenko, and Reimer 2004) EGB shows excess above 1 GeV (from power law dN/dE~E -2.33 ) Blazars IACT sensitivity: ~1000 high- peaked blazars expected ~50 13 known VHE blazars as of 2006 (ECRC 2006) EGRET >100 MeV

Halo Substructure Power spectra of SUSY-CDM (Green, Hofmann, & Schwarz 2004) Small scale DM clumps down to 10 -6 M at a scale of 0.02 pc Collisional damping and free streaming smear out inhomogeneities at still smaller scales Full range of structures 10 -6 M – 10 15 M not resolvable with current computing resources (Diemand, Moore, & Stadel 2005) Large boost factor for DMA emission (~ 2 ds)

Cusp removal Cusps can be destroyed by star formation feedback in high-z dwarfs (building blocks of galaxies) Merger evolution of galaxies preserves core structure (Kravtsov & Gnedin 2002) Small scale clumps may also be destroyed by tidal interactions with the gaseous disks (Silk et al.) DMA signal of galaxy cores much weaker than signal from cluster cores Dwarfs Giants, Clusters Mashenko et al., Nature 442, 539 (2006)

Other issues relevant for DMA Co-annihilation relaxes relation between A and DM (Baltz et al. 2006) Anisotropy due to local clumps in DM halo (Elsässer & Mannheim 2004, Ando & Komatsu 2006) possible „smoking gun“ Problems with direct detection outside of clump Detection of clumps from galactic halo with GLAST challenging (Pieri, Branchini, & Hofmann 2006) Spikes around IMBHs (Bertone et al. 2005) Positron excess measured by HEAT may be a hint for high-mass DMA (Edsjo 2002) Synchrotron photon excess measured by WMAP („haze“) can be consistently explained by DMA (Finkbeiner 2004) Baltz, Edsjö, Freese & Gondolo, Phys. Rev. D 65, 063511 (2002) Coutou (2002) Tarle (2002) Kane, Wang, Wells (2001, 2002)
