Can Supersymmetry Naturally Explain the Positron Excess?
Dan Hooper, James E. Taylor, Joseph Silk
It has often been suggested that the cosmic positron excess observed by the HEAT experiment could be the consequence of supersymmetric dark matter annihilating in the galactic halo…
Searching For Dark Matter with Neutrino Telescopes
Dan Hooper, Joseph Silk
One of the most interesting mysteries of astrophysics is the puzzle of dark matter. Although numerous techniques have been explored and developed to detect this elusive substance,…
Sensitivity to and in the Decaying Astrophysical Neutrino Scenario
John F. Beacom, Nicole F. Bell, Dan Hooper +2
We have previously shown that the decay of high-energy neutrinos from distant astrophysical sources would be revealed by flavor ratios that deviate strongly from the $ϕ_{ν_e}:ϕ_{ν_…
Direct and Indirect Detection of Neutralino Dark Matter In Selected Supersymmetry Breaking Scenarios
Dan Hooper, Lian-Tao Wang
Various methods of searching for supersymmetric dark matter are sensitive to WIMPs with different properties. One consequence of this is that the phenomenology of dark matter detec…
Pseudo-Dirac Neutrinos, a Challenge for Neutrino Telescopes
John F. Beacom, Nicole F. Bell, Dan Hooper +3
Neutrinos may be pseudo-Dirac states, such that each generation is actually composed of two maximally-mixed Majorana neutrinos separated by a tiny mass difference. The usual active…
