Brun TeV Particle Astrophysics II at University of Wisconsin 5
6 Example with the Positron Excess hints for an excess in the positron channel (AMS01 & HEAT) : Natural & Optimistic dark matters model too low exotic flux Need for a BOOST FACTOR B.F. is often claimed to be a consequence of DM substructures P.

Brun TeV Particle Astrophysics II at University of Wisconsin 8
9 Dealing with substructures Dark matter substructures could be brighter than the halo About Substructures : LARGE UNCERTAINTIES Consider a local over-density of dark matter : ρ² A boost factor is often introduced : ρ² ad hoc number energy independent not computed r The ratio of these areas defines the source boost factor B 0 r B 0 is defined with respect to some reference density ρ 0 It is no the effective boost factor P. Brun TeV Particle Astrophysics II at University of Wisconsin 9
10 The effective boost factor Total flux at the Earth : φ i being the flux from a single over-density Effective boost factor : Finally : Normalization factor = flux from the smooth halo Green function describes the propagation of e + Integral over the substructure volume B 0 The boost factor depends on : The energy, via I and G The considered cosmic ray specie, via G ( G e+ G p G D ) The internal structure of the over density, via B 0 Their location in the Milky Way, via G P. Brun TeV Particle Astrophysics II at University of Wisconsin 10
11 The energy dependence of the boost factor Positron loose energy as they propagate : The more is it detected close to its initial energy, the more close it comes from E 1 J. Lavalle, J. Pochon, P. Salati, R. Taillet (2006) E 2 >E 1 The sensitivity sphere radius is shortened as E The positrons comes from the volume V s : E V s P. Brun TeV Particle Astrophysics II at University of Wisconsin 11
12 Prediction of the Effective Boost Factor We wish make a prediction on the value of B : Statistical analysis Assume a statistical repartition of substructures Compute the random flux mean value and dispersion The prediction of B is affected by galactic variance P. Brun TeV Particle Astrophysics II at University of Wisconsin 12
13 Prediction of the Effective Boost Factor General proceedure : Cosmological simulation are performed Number of substructures in the halo Internal structure (related to the source boost factor) Spatial distribution Analytical determination of the expected<b> Analytical determination of the variance (when possible) Monte Carlo simulations <B>, σ B P. Brun TeV Particle Astrophysics II at University of Wisconsin 13
14 Boost factor from clumps Inputs : Internal structure of clumps Mini halos with NFW profiles, M clumps = [ 10 4, 10 6 ] M Amount of clumped halo mass Fixed fraction of clumpy mass gives the total number of clumps Spatial distribution Follows the whole dark matter density Particle physics framework 100 GeV positron line (Kalutza-Klein models) with σv=10-26 cm 3.s -1 P.
