Indirect Detection of Kaluza-Klein Dark Matter
Abstract
We investigate prospects for indirect detection of Kaluza-Klein dark matter, focusing on the annihilation radiation of the Kaluza-Klein photon $B^{(1)}$ in the Galactic halo, in particular we estimate neutrino, gamma-ray and synchrotron fluxes. Comparing the predicted fluxes with observational data we are able to constrain the $B^{(1)}$ mass (and therefore the compactification scale). The constraints depend on the specific model adopted for the dark matter density profile. For a NFW profile the analysis of synchrotron radiation puts a lower bound on the $B^{(1)}$ mass of the order of $\simeq500 $GeV.
