Contamination of stellar-kinematic samples and uncertainty about dark matter annihilation profiles in ultrafaint dwarf galaxies: the example of Segue I

V. Bonnivard, D. Maurin, M. G. Walker

The expected gamma-ray flux coming from dark matter annihilation in dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies depends on the so-called `J-factor', the integral of the squared dark matter de…

Decaying dark matter: a stacking analysis of galaxy clusters to improve on current limits

C. Combet, D. Maurin, E. Nezri +3

We show that a stacking approach to galaxy clusters can improve current limits on decaying dark matter by a factor , with respect to a single source analysis, for al…

gamma-rays from annihilating dark matter in galaxy clusters: stacking vs single source analysis

E. Nezri, R. White, C. Combet +3

Clusters of galaxies are potentially important targets for indirect searches for dark matter annihilation. Here we reassess the detection prospects for annihilation in massive halo…

Dark matter in the classical dwarf spheroidal galaxies: a robust constraint on the astrophysical factor for gamma-ray flux calculations

M. G. Walker, C. Combet, J. A. Hinton +2

We present a new analysis of the relative detectability of dark matter annihilation in the Milky Way's eight classical dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies. Ours is similar to previ…

PKS 2005-489 at VHE: Four Years of Monitoring with HESS and Simultaneous Multi-wavelength Observations

The HESS Collaboration, F. Acero

VHE observations of PKS 2005-489 were made with HESS from 2004 through 2007, together with three simultaneous multi-wavelength campaigns performed with XMM-Newton and RXTE in 2004…

Very high energy gamma-ray observations of the galaxy clusters Abell 496 and Abell 85 with H.E.S.S

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian

Aims: The nearby galaxy clusters Abell 496 and Abell 85 are studied in the very high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) band to investigate VHE cosmic rays (CRs) in this class of objects wh…
