Search for GeV-scale dark matter annihilation in the Sun with IceCube DeepCore

Journal Article Abbasi, R. ; Ackermann, M. ; Adams, J. ; ... - Physical Review. D.

The Sun provides an excellent target for studying spin-dependent dark matter-proton scattering due to its high matter density and abundant hydrogen content. Dark matter particles from the Galactic halo can elastically interact with Solar nuclei, resulting in their capture and thermalization in the Sun. The captured dark matter can annihilate into Standard Model particles including an observable flux of neutrinos. Here, we present the results of a search for low-energy (<500 GeV) neutrinos correlated with the direction of the Sun using 7 years of IceCube data. This work utilizes, for the first time, new optimized cuts to extend IceCube's sensitivitymore »« less

Search for annihilating dark matter in the Sun with 3 years of IceCube data

Journal Article Aartsen, M. G. ; Ackermann, M. ; Adams, J. ; ... - European Physical Journal. C, Particles and Fields

© 2017, The Author(s). We present results from an analysis looking for dark matter annihilation in the Sun with the IceCube neutrino telescope. Gravitationally trapped dark matter in the Sun’s core can annihilate into Standard Model particles making the Sun a source of GeV neutrinos. IceCube is able to detect neutrinos with energies > 100 GeV while its low-energy infill array DeepCore extends this to > 10 GeV. This analysis uses data gathered in the austral winters between May 2011 and May 2014, corresponding to 532 days of livetime when the Sun, being below the horizon, is a source of up-going neutrinomore »« less

Search for neutrinos from dark matter self-annihilations in the center of the Milky Way with 3 years of IceCube/DeepCore: IceCube Collaboration

Journal Article Aartsen, M. G. ; Ackermann, M. ; Adams, J. ; ... - European Physical Journal. C, Particles and Fields

Here, we present a search for a neutrino signal from dark matter self-annihilations in the Milky Way using the IceCube Neutrino Observatory (IceCube). In 1005 days of data we found no significant excess of neutrinos over the background of neutrinos produced in atmospheric air showers from cosmic ray interactions. We derive upper limits on the velocity averaged product of the dark matter self-annihilation cross section and the relative velocity of the dark matter particles < σ _A v>. We then set the upper limits for dark matter particle candidate masses ranging from 10 GeV up to 1 TeV while considering annihilation throughmore »« less

Combined search for neutrinos from dark matter self-annihilation in the Galactic Center with ANTARES and IceCube

Journal Article Albert, A. ; André, M. ; Anghinolfi, M. ; ... - Physical Review D

In this work, we present the results of the first combined dark matter search targeting the Galactic Centre using the ANTARES and IceCube neutrino telescopes. For dark matter particles with masses from 50 to 1000 GeV, the sensitivities on the self-annihilation cross section set by ANTARES and IceCube are comparable, making this mass range particularly interesting for a joint analysis.
