Talk 05 - Dark matter

Speaker

Michael Kachelriess (NTNU)

Description

I review the results of a new calculation for the antiproton production by cosmic ray protons and nuclei and discuss the expected theoretical uncertainty. Then I discuss the antiproton flux expected from a local, 2 Myr old SN and the implication for indirect dark matter searches.
