abstract

Monoenergetic $\gamma$-ray spectral lines are among the cleanest signatures of dark matter annihilation. We analyze 15 years of Fermi-LAT data, find no spectral lines, and place strong constraints on dark matter annihilation to monoenergetic $\gamma$-rays. Additionally, we produce the first double-line analysis of the coupled signals from $\gamma\gamma$ and $Z \gamma$ lines, which proves particularly powerful for dark matter masses above $\sim150$~GeV. From our constraints on a double-line feature, we investigate and constrain some minimal models where the Galactic Center Excess (GCE) can be fit by dark matter annihilation through the Higgs boson into Standard Model particles.

  1. In-flight positron annihilation as a probe of feebly interacting particles

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In-flight annihilation of positrons produced by supernova feebly interacting particles gives the strongest astrophysical bounds on their electron couplings for masses of roughly 10-200 MeV, covering ALPs, sterile neut...

  2. Constraining Effective Field Theories for dark matter candidates annihilating into gamma-ray lines with CTAO

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Using CTAO projected line sensitivity, the paper forecasts lower bounds on effective dark matter interaction scales above 10 TeV for TeV mass dark matter, with direct detection dominating the fermionic dipole operator.

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    An inelastic complex-scalar Higgs portal dark matter model can evade direct detection, explain the Galactic Center gamma-ray excess, and produce a first-order electroweak phase transition with a gravitational wave sig...
