LHAASO detection of dark matter and astrophysical gamma ray sources Xiao-Jun Bi IHEP, CAS Feb. 17 – 19, 2011 Outline Detection of dark matter @ LHAASO Diffuse gamma rays detection Crab Nebula– a standard candle or variable γ-ray source Concluding remarks Standard cosmology Indirect detection of dark matter --Gamma rays Monoenergetic spectrum Continuous spectrum Dark matter detection at YBJ The LHAASO project Flux of the annihilation products Flux is determined by the products of two factors The first factor is the strength of the interaction, determined completely by particle physics The second by the distribution of DM The flux depends on both the astrophysics and the particle aspects. GC and Subhalos for indirect detection The fluxes of the annihilation products are proportional to the annihilation cross section and the DM density square. Fluxes are greatly enhanced by clumps of DM. The Galactic center and center of subhalos have high density. Possibilities of DM detection at YBJ Gamma rays from the GC（almost impossible） From the DM subhalos in the MW From the Local group (satellite dwarf galaxies and nearby galaxies) ARGO constraints on DM annihilation LHAASO vs Fermi @ local group g-rays from the subhalos– large F.O.V, high sensitivity, high duty circle (compare Fermi, HESS) Sensitivities of LHAASO and Fermi on subhalo detection LHAAOS threshold ~100GeV，~10％Crab For DM mass ~ 700GeV, LHAASO Fermi Diffuse gamma rays at LHAASO Anomalous cosmic electron/positron spectrum at PAMELA、ATIC、Fermi Different models can work well Adjusting parameters, DM decay/annihilation, pulsars can all explain PAMELA and ATIC Crab flares (~3Fcrab over ~1yr) Variability of Crab Nebula gamma ray flux The electrons are accelerated in a series of knots, whose sizes follow a power-law distribution The maximal electron energy is assumed to be proportional to the size of the knot Fluctuations at the highest energy end of the overall electron distribution will result in va
