Cosmic Ray Constraints On the Annihilation of Heavy Stable Neutrinos in the Galactic Halo

Original · EN

We carry out a detailed analysis of fluxes of cosmic ray antiprotons, positrons, electrons and photons to be expected from the annihilation of relic heavy neutrinos in the galactic halo. The spectra of particles are evaluated by Monte Carlo simulation. The results of calculations show that the investigation of cosmic ray positron spectra at high energies could provide a distinctive signal for annihilation of very heavy neutrinos in the Galaxy and give an important information on parameters of dark matter particles.
