Journal ArticleDOI

A theory of dark matter

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a light boson invoked by XDM to mediate a large inelastic scattering cross section for the DAMA annual modulation signal at low velocities at redshift, which could produce observable effects on the ionization history of the universe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Giant gamma-ray bubbles from fermi-lat: active galactic nucleus activity or bipolar galactic wind?

TL;DR: The gamma-ray emission associated with these bubbles has a significantly harder spectrum (dN/dE ~ E 2) than the inverse Compton emission from electrons in the Galactic disk, or the gamma rays produced by the decay of pions from proton-interstellar medium collisions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Giant Gamma-ray Bubbles from Fermi-LAT: AGN Activity or Bipolar Galactic Wind?

TL;DR: The gamma-ray emission associated with these bubbles has a significantly harder spectrum (dN/dE ~ E^-2) than the IC emission from electrons in the Galactic disk, or the gamma-rays produced by decay of pions from proton-ISM collisions.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Characterization of the Gamma-Ray Signal from the Central Milky Way: A Compelling Case for Annihilating Dark Matter

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors suppress the tails of the point spread function and generate high-resolution gamma-ray maps, enabling them to more easily separate the various gamma-rays components.

The characterization of the gamma-ray signal from the central Milky Way: A case for annihilating dark matter

TL;DR: In this article, the authors suppress the tails of the point spread function and generate high-resolution gamma-ray maps, enabling them to more easily separate the various gamma ray components, and find the GeV excess to be robust and highly statistically significant, with a spectrum, angular distribution and overall normalization that is in good agreement with that predicted by simple annihilating dark matter models.
