Wobbly Dark Matter Signals at Cherenkov Telescopes from Long Lived Mediator Decays
Stefania Gori, Stefano Profumo, Bibhushan Shakya
Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (IACT) searches for dark matter often perform observations in "wobble mode", i.e. collecting data from the signal region and from a correspo…
Melanopogenesis: Dark Matter of (almost) any Mass and Baryonic Matter from the Evaporation of Primordial Black Holes weighing a Ton (or less)
Logan Morrison, Stefano Profumo, Yan Yu
The evaporation of primordial black holes with a mass in the 1000 kg range can lead to the production of dark matter particles of almost…
Comment on "keV Neutrino Dark Matter in a Fast Expanding Universe" by Biswas et al
Nicolas Fernandez, Stefano Profumo
Biswas et al. found that the thermal relic density of a dark matter particle freezing out while the universe's energy density is dominated by a non-standard extra component , wh…
Sub-GeV Dark Matter Shining at Future MeV Gamma-Ray Telescopes
Francesco D'Eramo, Stefano Profumo
We propose a novel framework where light (sub-GeV) dark matter (DM) is detectable with future MeV gamma-ray telescopes without conflicting with Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) da…
Lessons from HAWC PWNe observations: the diffusion constant is not a constant; Pulsars remain the likeliest sources of the anomalous positron fraction; Cosmic rays are trapped for long periods of time in pockets of inefficient diffusion
Stefano Profumo, Javier Reynoso-Cordova, Nicholas Kaaz +1
Recent TeV observations of nearby pulsars with the HAWC telescope have been interpreted as evidence that the diffusion of high-energy electrons and positrons within pulsar wind neb…
A Multi-Wavelength Analysis of Annihilating Dark Matter as the Origin of the Gamma-Ray Emission from M31
Alex McDaniel, Tesla Jeltema, Stefano Profumo
[Abridged] Indirect detection of dark matter (DM) by multi-wavelength astronomical observations provides a promising avenue for probing the particle nature of DM. In the case of DM…
