متن کاملTowards an optimized design for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a future instrument for very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astronomy that is expected to deliver an order of magnitude improvement in sensitivity over existing instruments. In order to meet the physics goals of CTA in a cost-effective way, Monte Carlo simulations of the telescope array are used in its design. Specifically, we simulate large arrays comprising...
متن کاملIndirect dark matter search in the Draco dwarf galaxy with the MAGIC Telescope
Introduction The development of western modern science, started four centuries ago with Galileo, has undergone a rapid acceleration and brought its greatest achievements in the last few decades. It can exploit means such as an exponentially growing knowledge joined to an amazingly advanced technology. Nevertheless, when contemporary scientists face with the question of what the Universe is made...
متن کاملIndirect search for Dark Matter with the ANTARES neutrino telescope
Relic neutralinos produced after the Big Bang are favoured candidates for Dark Matter. They can accumulate at the centre of massive celestial objects like our Sun. Their annihilation can result in a high-energy neutrino flux that could be detectable as a localised emission with earthbased neutrino telescopes like ANTARES. In this paper a brief overview of the prospects of the indirect search fo...
متن کاملDark matter distribution in dwarf spheroidal galaxies
We present predictions for the line-of-sight velocity dispersion profiles of dwarf spheroidal galaxies and compare them to observations in the case of the Fornax and Draco dwarfs. The predictions are made in the framework of standard dynamical theory of two-component (stars and dark matter) spherical systems with different velocity distributions. The stars are assumed to be distributed accordin...
