Annihilating Dark Matter and the Galactic Positron Excess
The possibility that the Galactic dark matter is composed of neutralinos that are just above half the Z mass is examined, in the context of the Galactic positron excess. In particular, we check if the anomalous bump in the cosmic ray positron to electron ratio at 10 GeV can be explained with the “decay” of virtual Z bosons produced when the neutralinos annihilate. We find that the low energy be...
متن کاملThe Structure of Dark Matter Halos in an Annihilating Dark Matter Model
The inability of standard non-interacting cold dark matter (CDM) to account for the small scale structure of individual galaxies has led to the suggestion that the dark matter may undergo elastic and/or inelastic scattering. We simulate the evolution of an isolated dark matter halo which undergoes both scattering and annihilation. Annihilations produce a core that grows with time due to adiabat...
متن کاملDark Matter and Background Light
Progress in observational cosmology over the past five years has established that the Universe is dominated dynamically by dark matter and dark energy. Both these new and apparently independent forms of matter-energy have properties that are inconsistent with anything in the existing standard model of particle physics, and it appears that the latter must be extended. We review what is known abo...
متن کاملStrong CMB Constraint On P -Wave Annihilating Dark Matter
We consider a dark sector consisting of dark matter that is a Dirac fermion and a scalar mediator. This model has been extensively studied in the past. If the scalar couples to the dark matter in a parity conserving manner then dark matter annihilation to two mediators is dominated by the P -wave channel and hence is suppressed at very low momentum. The indirect detection constraint from the an...
متن کاملPossibility of a dark matter interpretation for the excess in isotropic radio emission reported by ARCADE.
The ARCADE 2 Collaboration has recently measured an isotropic radio emission which is significantly brighter than the expected contributions from known extra-galactic sources. The simplest explanation of such excess involves a "new" population of unresolved sources which become the most numerous at very low (observationally unreached) brightness. We investigate this scenario in terms of synchro...
