Astrophysical Interplay in Dark Matter Searches

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

I discuss recent progress in dark matter searches, focusing in particular on how rigorous modeling the dark matter distribution in the Galaxy and in its satellite galaxies improves our interpretation of the limits on the annihilation and elastic scattering cross sections. Looking forward to indirect and direct searches that will operate during the next decade, I review methods for extracting the properties of the dark matter in these experiments in the presence of unknown Galactic model parameters.
