Detecting neutralino annihilation photon from DRACO with Celeste?
Edmond Giraud, Julien Lavalle
The objective of this project is to probe a fraction of the supersymmetric parameter space by assuming that the halo of the dSph DRACO is made of neutralinos. DRACO would be one of the numerous clumps predicted by CDM simulations that would not be disrupted by the galactic tidal field. We consider various mass models of DRACO consistent with the data and CDM simulations, and run the codes SUSPECT and DarkSUSY to derive high energy photon fluxes. The code SUSPECT starts from the 5 MSugra free parameters at the GUT scale and evolves the SUSY Lagrangian to the EW scale, and the code DarkSUSY calculates masses, couplings, branching ratios at the EW scale, checks experimental and cosmological constraints, and derives the gamma fluxes. Some fraction of the neutralino parameter space maybe within reach of CELESTE under favourable astrophysical conditions.
