• 2006 r. analysis of mass distribution in the region of passing through gallaxy clusters (1E0657-558) (*)
• Gravitational lensing – gravitational potential (images from Hubble Space Telescope, European Southern Observatory VLT, Magellan) / violet
• X-rays - Chandra X-ray Observatory (NASA) /rose
(*) D.Clowe et al. 2006 Ap. J. 648 L109
1E0657-558• Mass of gas typically 2x larger than the mass of visible matter in gallaxies
• Result: concentration of gravitational mass is where gallaxies are
• Region of X emission:only 10% of the total mass of the system
• Comparison of both observations makes Dark Matter necessary

Dark Matter - candidates
• Known particles – MACHO’s (Massive Astronomical Compact Halo
Objects), np. brown dwarfs, neutron stars, black holes
– Neutrinos (Hot Dark Matter - HDM)
• Postulated particles:– Axions – WIMP-s (Weakly Interacting Massive Particles) -
slow, massive, neutral particles, weakly interacting with matter (Cold Dark Matter - CDM)
< 7% of mass of gallactic halo (exp. EROS)
structure formation requires CDM

WIMPs(WIMP – Weakly Interacting Massive Particle)
We are looking for particles:
Neutral With long lifetime ( τ ~ Universe lifetime) Massive ( Mχ ~ 100 GeV) Weakly interacting
neutralino χ (SUSY) – LSP (Lightest Supersymmetric Particle), is stable (conservation of R parity in SUSY)
a good WIMP candidate:
neutralino(χ) 18 GeV < Mχ < 7 TeVLEP cosmology

SuperK limit for neutralino elastic cross section (spin independent interactions)
comparison with direct detection
• Comparison with direct detection: model dependent, assuming only spin-independent interactions in Earth and Sun
• Direct and Indirect event rates:
Evt. rate in 1 kg Ge detector = Evt. Rate in 104-106 m2 of upward muon detector (assuming SI couplings)
» Currently: lowest limit in direct detection -> XENON, ~10-7 pb (10-43 cm2) for a 100 GeV WIMP

Summary Dark Matter consistently needed to understand various
astrophysical observations
According to current studies it constitutes around 24% of the total energy of the Universe
The searches of Dark Matter candidates are going on in various experiments:– direct searches– indirect searches using neutrinos from WIMP annihilation
Recently some puzzling observations (PAMELA, ATIC, EGRET) - could be due to DM??
