Abstract:
This work presents indirect searches for dark matter (DM) as WIMPs (Weakly Interacting Massive Particles) using neutrino data collected with the Super-Kamiokande detector from 1996 until 2016. The results of the search for WIMP-induced neutrinos from the Sun, the Earth’s core and the Milky Way are discussed. We looked for an excess of neutrinos related to a given source as compared to the expected atmospheric neutrino background. No excess of the WIMP-induced neutrinos is observed in any of the analyses. Limits on the WIMP-nucleon spin-dependent/-independent cross sections (Solar & Earth analysis) and on the WIMP self-annihilation cross section 〈 σ A V 〉 (Galactic analysis) are derived assuming various annihilation modes and masses of the relic particles.
