sub-GeV暗物质在中央分子区引发的异常电离

Anomalous Ionization in the Central Molecular Zone by sub-GeV Dark Matter

Pedro De la Torre Luque, Shyam Balaji, Joseph Silk

AI总结:

该研究提出中央分子区异常电离源于MeV暗物质湮灭产生$e^+e^-$对,并指出其可能与银心511 keV线辐射同源。

摘要:

我们证明,对于斜率γ>1的银河系暗物质分布,中央分子区观测到的异常电离率可归因于MeV暗物质湮灭为$e^+e^-$对。所需的低湮灭截面避开了宇宙学约束,并意味着在射电、X射线和γ射线波段不存在可探测的逆康普顿辐射、轫致辐射或同步辐射。它与银心尚未解释的511 keV线辐射源之间可能存在的联系表明,这两项观测可能相关并具有共同起源。

英文摘要:

We demonstrate that the anomalous ionization rate observed in the Central Molecular Zone can be attributed to MeV dark matter annihilations into $e^+e^-$ pairs for galactic dark matter profiles with slopes $γ>1$. The low annihilation cross-sections required avoid cosmological constraints and imply no detectable inverse Compton, bremsstrahlung or synchrotron emissions in radio, X and gamma rays. The possible connection to the source of the unexplained 511 keV line emission in the Galactic Center suggests that both observations could be correlated and have a common origin.
