Invited talk Dark Matter Indirect Dark Matter Plenary

Speaker

Carsten Rott (Sungkyunkwan University)

Description

Indirect searches for dark matter are a cornerstone in the dark matter particle identification program. Searches for stable messenger particles produced as part of the self-annihilation or decay of dark matter have resulted in stringent bounds on dark matter properties. Searches with gamma-rays, neutrinos, and charged cosmic-rays will be summarized and constraints on the dark matter self-annihilation cross section, lifetime, and interaction with ordinary matter will be reviewed. The talk will conclude with an outlook in the discovery potential at current and next-generation dark matter search experiments.
