TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the performance of a SU (2 ) L fermion quintuplet with mass 4.4 TeV, accompanied by a charged partner 166 MeV heavier with life-time 1.8 cm, that manifests at colliders as charged tracks disappearing in π ± with 97.7% branching ratio.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors calculate the antiproton flux due to relic neutralino annihilations, in a two-dimensional diffusion model compatible with stable and radioactive cosmic ray nuclei, and find that the uncertainty in the primary flux induced by the propagation parameters alone is about two orders of magnitude at low energies, and it is mainly determined by the lack of knowledge of the thickness of the diffusive halo.

TL;DR: In this paper, the positron propagation inside the galactic medium is studied, and the authors present novel solutions of the diffusion and propagation equations and focus on the determination of the astrophysical uncertainties which affect the POSRON dark matter signal.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that for energies less than the line-D, the spallation component becomes negligible and may be replaced by a potential supersymmetric signal, which could be taken as a clue for the existence of massive neutralinos in the Milky Way.

TL;DR: The PAMELA satellite has provided high quality data that has enabled high accuracy statistical analyses to be made, showing that the increase in the positron fraction extends up to about 100 GeV as mentioned in this paper.
