A dark matter scenario with two stable WIMPs which is consistent with the Fermi-LAT observations of gamma rays from the Galactic center and Omega Centauri
ORAL
Abstract
In our multicomponent dark matter scenario [1], the dominant particle -- the lightest Higgson $H^0$ -- has a firm upper bound of 125 GeV/c$^2$ for its mass, while the lightest neutralino $\chi^0$ is subdominant and presumably has a substantially higher mass. The predictions of our scenario are consistent with the Fermi-LAT observations of gamma rays from the Galactic center [2,3] and Omega Centauri [4].
