Abstract

This chapter presents the elaborated lecture notes on Multi-Messenger Astronomy and Dark Matter given by Lars Bergström at the 40th Saas-Fee Advanced Course on "Astrophysics at Very High Energies". One of the main problems of astrophysics and astro-particle physics is that the nature of dark matter remains unsolved. There are basically three complementary approaches to try to solve this problem. One is the detection of new particles with accelerators, the second is the observation of various types of messengers from radio waves to gamma-ray photons and neutrinos, and the third is the use of ingenious experiments for direct detection of dark matter particles. After giving an introduction to the particle universe, the author discusses the relic density of particles, basic cross sections for neutrinos and gamma-rays, supersymmetric dark matter, detection methods for neutralino dark matter, particular dark matter candidates, the status of dark matter detection, a detailled calculation on an hypothetical "Saas-Fee Wimp", primordial black holes, and gravitational waves.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The supersymmetric neutralino is actually its own antiparticle (just as the photon is its own antiparticle). The formalism is very similar in this case. In particular, a neutralino can annihilate with another neutralino giving other, non-supersymmetric particles in the final state.

  2. 2.

    This coupling constant usually denoted just \(\alpha \) without the subscript, as all others, depends on the energy scale, for example, the energy transfer, of the process. At 100 GeV energy \(\alpha _{em}\) is \({\sim } 1/128\).

  3. 3.

    Enrico Fermi is well-known today as the one who has been honoured by giving the \(\gamma \)-ray satellite, FERMI, its name. This has to do with his description of acceleration processes in astrophysics.

  4. 4.
