Gamma Ray and Neutrino Flux from Annihilation of Neutralino Dark Matter at Galactic Halo Region in mAMSB Model

Abstract

We consider the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP), neutralino in minimal anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking model (mAMSB) to be a possible candidate for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMP) or cold dark matter and investigate its direct and indirect detections. The theoretically allowed supersymmetric parametric space for such a model along with the recent bounds from LHC is constrained by the WMAP results for relic densities. The spin independent and spin dependent scattering cross sections for dark matter off nucleon are thus constrained from the WMAP results. They are found to be within the allowed regions of different ongoing direct detection experiments. The annihilation of such dark matter candidates at the galactic centre produce different standard model particles such as gamma rays, neutrinos etc. In this work, we calculate the possible fluxes of these $\gamma$-rays and neutrinos coming from the direction of the galactic centre (and its neighbourhood) at terrestrial or satellite borne detectors. The calcutated $\gamma$-ray flux is compared with the observational results of HESS experiment. The neutrino flux of different flavours from the galactic centre and at different locations away from the galactic centre produced by WIMP annihilation in this model are also obtained for four types of galactic dark matter halo profiles. The detection prospects of such ${\nu }_{\mu }$ coming from the direction of the galactic centre at the ANTARES under sea detector are discussed in terms of muon signal yield from these muon neutrinos. Both the gamma and neutrino signals are estimated for four different dark matter halo profiles.
