WIMP Annihilation in Sun
![Page 13: The ANTARES Neutrino Telescope and its Dark Matter Capabilities Jürgen Hößl, Universität Erlangen, on behalf of the ANTARES Collaboration Edinburgh, September.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfe01a28abf838cb3014/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
WIMP Annihilation at Centre of the Earth
- mass of Earth << mass of Sun
- possibly dramatic reduction of capture rate in Earth due to depletion of neutralino density by solar capture
only small capture rate in the Earth
annihilation rate and neutrino flux from Earth smaller than from Sun
for ANTARES: search from Earth not competitive with search from Sun
(J.Lundberg and J.Edsjö, astro-ph/0401113)Large uncertainties
![Page 14: The ANTARES Neutrino Telescope and its Dark Matter Capabilities Jürgen Hößl, Universität Erlangen, on behalf of the ANTARES Collaboration Edinburgh, September.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfe01a28abf838cb3014/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
WIMP Annihilation at Galactic Centre (GC)
- possibility to probe DM profile in Galactic Centre (contrary to direct searches) - uncertainties about DM profile: standard parametrisations give low neutrino fluxes from GC (e.g. Navarro, Frenk and White, Astrophys. J. 462(1996) 563 )
from G. Bertone et al.astro-ph/0403322
![Page 15: The ANTARES Neutrino Telescope and its Dark Matter Capabilities Jürgen Hößl, Universität Erlangen, on behalf of the ANTARES Collaboration Edinburgh, September.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfe01a28abf838cb3014/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
WIMP Annihilation at Galactic Centre (GC)
but: possible enhancement of annihilation flux by orders of magnitude in the presence of a black hole (spike)
from G. Bertone et al.astro-ph/0403322
EGRET signal neutrino flux:
(e.g. P. Gondolo and J. Silk, Phys. Rev. Lett. 83(1999)1719 )
orders of magnitude flux uncertainties!

PSL & MIL Operation in 2003
Sea operations: - deployment/connections/recovery without problemsLine operations: - power distribution - data transfer to shore (130 GByte) - remote control without problemsminor problems: - distribution of the onshore synchronised clock signal failed due to broken fibre: manufacturer used inappropriate cable
- water leakage in Mini Instrumentation Line after 2 months under high pressure: mismatch of o-ring/hole size
Lot of data during 3 months of operation
