20 Back To The Injection Cross Sections Reloaded Source term: q B = 4π i {C,N,O,Ne,Mg,Si} dt dσ dt n ISMΦ i (T ) Parametrization from Webber et al., AJSS 144 (2003) 153 Large uncertainties, poor experimental data 50 σ ( ) [ ] [ ]
21 Nuclear Physics Meets Astrophysics Source term q B for boron determined Fokker-Planck equation solved with semi-analytical approach in two dimensions Maurin et al., Astrophys.J. 555 (2001) With the fit to the carbon flux B/C ratio computed (Secondary/Primary ratio) Scanned over a sample of random propagation parameters and kept only configurations which passed χ 2 test Propagation parameters fixed with highest precision!
22 B/C Before AMS-02 Best data before AMS-02 from the PAMELA experiment Adriani et al., Astrophys. J. 791 (2014), 93 Clear trend but still large uncertainties
23 B/C In The AMS-02 Precision Era Low experimental errors and data up to high rigidities Still preliminary data Data quality will further increase
24 p/p Ratio With Old Propagation Parameters p/p ratio computed with outdated (unknown?) propagation parameters
25 Protons And Helium Primaries Reloaded Source term for p production: q p = 4π dt dσ dt n ISM Φ i (T ) i {H,He} Φ i TOA T 2.7 [ m -2 sr -1 s -1 (GeV/n) 1.7 ] Proton Helium AMS-02 Fits to measured fluxes with spectral break Φ i (T ) = ( ) T c A k T γ k T + b k CREAM T [GeV/n]
26 New p Production Cross Sections Source term for p production: q p = 4π dt i {H,He} dσ dt n ISMΦ i (T ) mb GeV 2 o f pp p x R NA49 Data, Fit p T p T p T p T 0.1 GeV 0.5 GeV 0.9 GeV 1.3 GeV New results from NA49 experiment with huge phase space coverage Anticic et al., Eur. Phys. J. C65 (2010) 9 Tracking of uncertainties, hyperon feed-down effects, isospin effects,... RK and Winkler, JCAP 09 (2014) 051
27 p/p Ratio With New Propagation Parameters p/p ratio computed with new cross sections New propagation parameters derived from boron Good agreement for antiprotons No need for antiprotons from dark matter annihilation Good probe to constrain dark matter models
28 Outlook Positrons, Better Cross Section Data, Φ TOA T 3 [ m -2 sr -1 s -1 GeV 2 ] AMS-02 e + data e + best fit in sample propagation uncertainties T [GeV] Data on positrons can be used to further constrain propagation parameters
29 Outlook Positrons, Better Cross Section Data, σ ( ) [ ] [ ] New cross section measurements would dramatically decrease the uncertainty
30 Outlook Positrons, Better Cross Section Data, σ ( ) [ ] [ ] New cross section measurements would dramatically decrease the uncertainty
31 Conclusions With AMS-02 the precision era for indirect dark matter detection started We estimated the antiproton background with very high precision The new antiproton data together with our background calculation will be a perfect probe for dark matter models Thank you for your attention!
