Strategies for determining the nature of dark matter

D Hooper, EA Baltz - Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle …, 2008 - annualreviews.org
In this review, we discuss the role of the various experimental programs taking part in the
effort to identify the particle nature of dark matter. In particular, we focus on electroweak …

Fitting the phenomenological MSSM

SS AbdusSalam, BC Allanach, F Quevedo, F Feroz… - Physical Review D …, 2010 - APS
We perform a global Bayesian fit of the phenomenological minimal supersymmetric standard
model (pMSSM) to current indirect collider and dark matter data. The pMSSM contains the …

High energy neutrinos from neutralino annihilations in the Sun

V Barger, WY Keung, G Shaughnessy, A Tregre - Physical Review D …, 2007 - APS
Neutralino annihilations in the Sun to weak boson and top-quark pairs lead to high-energy
neutrinos that can be detected by the IceCube and KM3 experiments in the search for …

Spin dependence of dark matter scattering

V Barger, WY Keung, G Shaughnessy - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2008 - APS
New experiments designed to discover a weakly interacting dark matter (DM) particle via
spin dependent scattering can distinguish models of electroweak symmetry breaking. The …

Recoil detection of the lightest neutralino in MSSM singlet extensions

V Barger, P Langacker, I Lewis, M McCaskey… - Physical Review D …, 2007 - APS
We investigate the correlated predictions of singlet extended MSSM models for direct
detection and the cosmological relic density of the lightest neutralino. To illustrate the …
