Indirect searches for SUSY Dark Matter with the MAGIC Cherenkov Telescope

Neutralinos are the natural well-motivated candidates to provide the non-baryonic dark matter of the universe which may produce detectable signals through their annihilation into neutrinos, photons or positrons. Due to its high flux sensitivity and low energy threshold, the MAGIC Cherenkov telescope could potentially detect the neutralino annihilation high energy photon products. In the framework of minimal supergravity, the neutralino SUSY parameter space can be scanned in different benchmark scenarios defined after accelerator and cosmology constraints. Moreover, the neutralino density profiles in galaxy halos and sub-halos have to be understood to infer which is the optimal observation region to be explored by the MAGIC telescope for the detection of neutralino photon signatures within our Galaxy and our Local Group.
