Sterile neutrinos with masses in the keV range are viable candidates for the warm dark matter. We analyze existing data for the extragalactic diffuse X-ray background for signatures of sterile neutrino decay. The absence of detectable signal within current uncertainties of background measurements puts model-independent constraints on allowed values of sterile neutrino mass and mixing angle, which we present in this work.

  1. NuSTAR Tests of Sterile-Neutrino Dark Matter: New Galactic Bulge Observations and Combined Impact

    astro-ph.HE 2019-08 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    A 190 kilosecond NuSTAR search at high Galactic latitude finds no sterile-neutrino dark matter decay line and improves the leading upper limit by a factor of about two for 10-12 keV masses.
