Searching for relic neutralinos using neutrino telescopes (original) (raw)
1996, Astroparticle Physics
Neutrino telescopes of large area oer the possibility of searching for indirect signals of relic neutralinos in the galactic halo, due to annihilations in the Sun or the Earth. Here we i n v estigate the sensitivity, using a supergravity scheme where the soft scalar mass terms are not constrained by universality conditions at the grand unication scale. We rst discuss in which regions of the supersymmetric parameter space the neutralino may be considered as a good candidate for cold dark matter. The discovery potential of the search using neutrino telescopes is then compared to that of the direct search for relic neutralinos.
