- Search for dark matter using diffuse gamma rays discovered by Tibet AS_{\gamma}
- Time: 2:00 pm
- Place: Meeting ID: 912 3071 4547
- Speaker: Tarak Nath Maity , IISc, India
- Abstract: Gamma rays being charge-neutral are extremely useful messengers in astroparticle physics. Recently the Tibet AS_{\gamma} experiment has detected sub-PeV diffuse gamma rays from part of the galactic disc. In this talk, we will present the theorist's view on the detection principle of high-energy gamma rays by Tibet AS_{\gamma}. Then we will discuss its implications in the physics of particle dark matter.
- Host: Baha Balantekin
