Radio Signal Constraints on Galactic Dark Matter Annihilation

Journal Article Borriello, E ; Cuoco, A ; Mangano, G ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

Annihilation of Dark Matter usually produces together with gamma rays comparable amounts of electrons and positrons. The e{sup +}e{sup -} gyrating in the galactic magnetic field then produce secondary synchrotron radiation which thus provides an indirect mean to constrain the DM signal itself. To this purpose, we calculate the radio emission from the galactic halo as well as from its expected substructures and we then compare it with the measured diffuse radio background. We employ a multi-frequency approach using data in the relevant frequency range 100 MHz-100 GHz, as well as the WMAP Haze data at 23 GHz. The derivedmore »« less

Radio and gamma-ray constraints on dark matter annihilation in the Galactic center

Journal Article Crocker, R M ; School of Physics, Monash University, 3800, Victoria ; Max Planck Institut fuer Kernphysik, Saupfercheckweg 1, D-69117 Heidelberg ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We determine upper limits on the dark matter (DM) self-annihilation cross section for scenarios in which annihilation leads to the production of electron--positron pairs. In the Galactic center, relativistic electrons and positrons produce a radio flux via synchroton emission, and a gamma-ray flux via bremsstrahlung and inverse Compton scattering. On the basis of archival, interferometric and single-dish radio data, we have determined the radio spectrum of an elliptical region around the Galactic center of extent 3 deg. semimajor axis (along the Galactic plane) and 1 deg. semiminor axis and a second, rectangular region, also centered on the Galactic center, ofmore »« less

CONSTRAINTS ON DARK MATTER ANNIHILATION IN CLUSTERS OF GALAXIES FROM DIFFUSE RADIO EMISSION

Journal Article Storm, Emma ; Jeltema, Tesla E. ; Profumo, Stefano ; ... - Astrophysical Journal

Annihilation of dark matter can result in the production of stable Standard Model particles including electrons and positrons that, in the presence of magnetic fields, lose energy via synchrotron radiation, observable as radio emission. Galaxy clusters are excellent targets to search for or to constrain the rate of dark matter annihilation, as they are both massive and dark matter dominated. In this study, we place limits on dark matter annihilation in a sample of nearby clusters using upper limits on the diffuse radio emission, low levels of observed diffuse emission, or detections of radio mini-halos. We find that the strongestmore »« less

Gamma-ray and radio constraints of high positron rate dark matter models annihilating into new light particles

Journal Article Bergstroem, Lars ; Bringmann, Torsten ; Edsjoe, Joakim ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

The possibility of explaining the positron and electron excess recently found by the PAMELA and ATIC Collaborations in terms of dark matter (DM) annihilation has attracted considerable attention. Models surviving bounds from, e.g., antiproton production generally fall into two classes, where either DM annihilates directly with a large branching fraction into light leptons, or, as in the recent models of Arkani-Hamed et al., and of Nomura and Thaler, the annihilation gives low-mass (pseudo)scalars or vectors {phi} which then decay into {mu}{sup +}{mu}{sup -} or e{sup +}e{sup -}. While the constraints on the first kind of models have recently been treatedmore »« less
