Toward universal coalescence models for antideuteron production
Mattia di Mauro, Jordan Koechler, Lorenzo Stefanuto +3
Cosmic-ray (CR) antinuclei, especially antideuteron and antihelium-3 nuclei , are among the most promising messengers for indirect dark ma…
Relic neutralinos and the two dark matter candidate events of the CDMS II experiment
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
The CDMS Collaboration has presented its results for the final exposure of the CDMS II experiment and reports that two candidate events for dark matter would survive after applicat…
Upper bounds on signals due to WIMP self--annihilation: comments on the case of the synchrotron radiation from the galactic center and the WMAP haze
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
Two recent papers reconsider the possibility that the excess of microwave emission from a region within of the galactic center (the {\it WMAP haze}), measured by WMAP,…
Do current WIMP direct measurements constrain light relic neutralinos?
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
New upper bounds on direct detection rates have recently been presented by a number of experimental collaborations working on searches for WIMPs. In this paper we analyze how the c…
Indirect signals from light neutralinos in supersymmetric models without gaugino mass unification
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
We examine indirect signals produced by neutralino self-annihilations, in the galactic halo or inside celestial bodies, in the frame of an effective MSSM model without gaugino-mass…
Size of the neutralino--nucleon cross--section in the light of a new determination of the pion--nucleon sigma term
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
We discuss the implications of a new determination of the pion-nucleon sigma term for the evaluation of the neutralino-nucleon cross-section, and, in turn, for detection rates for…
Probing the supersymmetric parameter space by WIMP direct detection
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
We discuss to which extent the present experiments of direct search for WIMPs, when interpreted in terms of relic neutralinos, probe interesting regions of the supersymmetric param…
Further investigation of a relic neutralino as a possible origin of an annual-modulation effect in WIMP direct search
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
We analyze the annual-modulation effect, measured by the DAMA Collaboration with the new implementation of a further two-years running, in the context of a possible interpretation…
Implications for relic neutralinos of the theoretical uncertainties in the neutralino-nucleon cross-section
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
We discuss the effect induced on the neutralino-nucleon cross-section by the present uncertainties in the values of the quark masses and of the quark scalar densities in the nucleo…
Combining the data of annual modulation effect in WIMP direct detection with measurements of WIMP indirect searches
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
In previous papers we showed that the data of the DAMA/NaI experiment for WIMP direct detection, which indicate a possible annual modulation effect, are widely compatible with an i…
Compatibility of the new DAMA/NaI data on an annual modulation effect in WIMP direct search with a relic neutralino in supergravity schemes
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
Recent results of the DAMA/NaI experiment for WIMP direct detection point to a possible annual modulation effect in the detection rate. We show that these results, when interpreted…
Neutralino properties in the light of a further indication of an annual modulation effect in WIMP direct search
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
We demonstrate that the further indication of a possible annual modulation effect, singled out by the DAMA/NaI experiment for WIMP direct detection, is widely compatible with an in…
Which fraction of the measured cosmic-ray antiprotons might be due to neutralino annihilation in the galactic halo?
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
We analyze the data of low-energy cosmic-ray antiproton spectrum, recently published by the BESS Collaboration, in terms of newly calculated fluxes for secondary antiprotons and fo…
Pinning down neutralino properties from a possible modulation signal in WIMP direct search
A. Bottino, F. Donato, N. Fornengo +1
We analyze the properties of neutralino under the hypothesis that some preliminary experimental results of the DAMA/NaI Collaboration may be indicative of a yearly modulation effec…
Exploring the supersymmetric parameter space by direct search for WIMPs
A. Bottino, F. Donato, G. Mignola +3
It is shown that the new data of the DAMA/NaI detector, combined with recent calculations of nuclear structure functions, provide the most stringent upper bounds on the WIMP-nucleo…
