Spectral cutoffs in indirect dark matter searches

Christoph Weniger, Torsten Bringmann, Francesca Calore +1

Indirect searches for dark matter annihilation or decay products in the cosmic-ray spectrum are plagued by the question of how to disentangle a dark matter signal from the omnipres…

Galaxy Clusters and Gamma-Ray Lines: Probing Gravitino Dark Matter with the Fermi LAT

Xiaoyuan Huang, Gilles Vertongen, Christoph Weniger

If dark matter particles are not perfectly stable, their decay products might be seen in the cosmic-ray fluxes. A natural candidate for decaying dark matter is the gravitino in R-p…

Probing Dark Matter Decay and Annihilation with Fermi LAT Observations of Nearby Galaxy Clusters

Xiaoyuan Huang, Gilles Vertongen, Christoph Weniger

Galaxy clusters are promising targets for indirect dark matter searches. Gamma-ray signatures from the decay or annihilation of dark matter particles inside these clusters could be…

On the Relevance of Sharp Gamma-Ray Features for Indirect Dark Matter Searches

Torsten Bringmann, Francesca Calore, Gilles Vertongen +1

Gamma rays from the annihilation of dark matter particles in the Galactic halo provide a particularly promising means of indirectly detecting dark matter. Here, we demonstrate that…

Entropy, Baryon Asymmetry and Dark Matter from Heavy Neutrino Decays

W. Buchmuller, K. Schmitz, G. Vertongen

The origin of the hot phase of the early universe remains so far an unsolved puzzle. A viable option is entropy production through the decays of heavy Majorana neutrinos whose life…

Hunting Dark Matter Gamma-Ray Lines with the Fermi LAT

Gilles Vertongen, Christoph Weniger

Monochromatic photons could be produced in the annihilation or decay of dark matter particles. At high energies, the search for such line features in the cosmic gamma-ray spectrum…
