A Tale of Tails: Dark Matter Interpretations of the Fermi GeV Excess in Light of Background Model Systematics
Francesca Calore, Ilias Cholis, Christopher McCabe +1
Several groups have identified an extended excess of gamma rays over the modeled foreground and background emissions towards the Galactic center (GC) based on observations with the…
No WIMP Mini-Spikes in Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies
Mark Wanders, Gianfranco Bertone, Marta Volonteri +1
The formation of black holes inevitably affects the distribution of dark and baryonic matter in their vicinity, leading to an enhancement of the dark matter density, called spike,…
Background model systematics for the Fermi GeV excess
Francesca Calore, Ilias Cholis, Christoph Weniger
The possible gamma-ray excess in the inner Galaxy and the Galactic center (GC) suggested by Fermi-LAT observations has triggered a large number of studies. It has been interpreted…
Updated cosmic-ray and radio constraints on light dark matter: Implications for the GeV gamma-ray excess at the Galactic center
Torsten Bringmann, Martin Vollmann, Christoph Weniger
The apparent gamma-ray excess in the Galactic center region and inner Galaxy has attracted considerable interest, notably because both its spectrum and radial distribution are cons…
Search for 100 MeV to 10 GeV gamma-ray lines in the Fermi-LAT data and implications for gravitino dark matter in the SSM
Andrea Albert, German A. Gomez-Vargas, Michael Grefe +6
Dark matter decay or annihilation may produce monochromatic signals in the gamma-ray energy range. In this work we argue that there are strong theoretical motivations for studying…
