The velocity distribution the local gravitational potential and, combined with stellar density constraints ρ = 0.28 ± 0.08 GeV cm 3 McKee et al. use star counts and find a significantly lower total stellar mass density than the dynamical stellar density profile measures. Combined with determinations of local total mass densities, they find a higher local dark matter density ρ = 0.49 ± 0.13 GeV cm 3. Pato et al. use measures of gas kinematics from neutral hydrogen terminal velocities and thickness, carbon monoxide terminal velocities, ionized hydrogen regions, and giant molecular clouds, as well as stellar and maser kinematics: ρ = ± GeV cm 3.

38 Discriminating Dark Matter: Self-Interacting Dark Matter A dark matter candidate that does not directly produce gamma rays in annihilation, but requires the conditions in the Galactic Center to light up. If the DM annihilates into hard leptons (electrons), they can upscatter the high density of stellar light in the GC (inverse Compton): χχ e + e - e ± + γ IR e ± + γ GeV Realizable in Self-Interacting Dark Matter (SIDM) [Kaplinghat, Linden, Yu arxiv: ] Abazajian & Ryan Keeley (in preparation)
39 Summary
40 Summary The γ-ray excess in the Galactic Center is a whopping signal (~13σ) that is in itself consistent with dark matter annihilation of ~40 GeV WIMPS to b-quarks or ~10 GeV to τ- leptons.
41 Summary The γ-ray excess in the Galactic Center is a whopping signal (~13σ) that is in itself consistent with dark matter annihilation of ~40 GeV WIMPS to b-quarks or ~10 GeV to τ- leptons. Since 2010, we have known of an astrophysical interpretation of the γ-ray excess in the GC: a standard population of millisecond pulsars. Spectrum, flux and morphology are consistent with MSPs, most closely following stellar X-bulge. Luminosity function is also consistent.
