Charged particles scattering on moving inhomogenities of the magnetised interstellar medium can gain energy through the process of second-order Fermi acceleration. This energy gain depletes in turn the magnetic wave spectrum around the resonance wave-vector $ksim 1/R_L$, where $R_L$ is the Larmor radius of the charged particle. This energy transfer can prohibit the cascading of magnetic turbulence to smaller scales, leading to a drop in the diffusion coefficient and allowing the efficient exchange of charged dark matter particles in the disk and the halo. As a result, terrestial limits from direct detection experiments apply to charged dark matter. Together with the no-observation of a drop in the diffusion coefficient, this excludes charged dark matter for $10^3 GeVlesssim m/q lesssim 10^{11} GeV$, even if the charged dark matter abundance is only a small part of the total relic abundance.

Boost factors of dark matter annihilation into antiprotons and electrons/positrons due to the clumpiness of dark matter distribution are studied in detail in this work, taking the Sommerfeld effect into account. It has been thought that the Sommerfel
d effect, if exists, will be more remarkable in substructures because they are colder than the host halo, and may result in a larger boost factor. We give a full calculation of the boost factors based on the recent N-body simulations. Three typical cases of Sommerfeld effects, the non-resonant, moderately resonant and strongly resonant cases are considered. We find that for the non-resonant and moderately resonant cases the enhancement effects of substructures due to the Sommerfeld effect are very small ($sim mathcal{O}(1)$) because of the saturation behavior of the Sommerfeld effect. For the strongly resonant case the boost factor is typically smaller than $sim mathcal{O}(10)$. However, it is possible in some very extreme cases that DM distribution is adopted to give the maximal annihilation the boost factor can reach up to $sim 1000$. The variances of the boost factors due to different realizations of substructures distribution are also discussed in the work.
In this paper we study the effect of reacceleration provided by turbulences on electrons produced by dark matter (DM) annihilation in the Coma cluster. We use a simplified phenomenological model to describe the effect of the turbulences, and explore
a limited subset of three possible DM models for neutralino particles with different mass and annihilation channel. We find that, for values of the annihilation cross section of the order of the upper limits found with Fermi-LAT measurements in astrophysical objects, and for conservative values of the boosting factor due to DM substructures, the reacceleration due to turbulences can enhance the radio emission produced by DM-originated electrons up to the level of the observed flux of the radio halo in Coma, for moderate reacceleration intensity in relatively short times. Therefore we conclude that, even if it is not possible to distinguish between the fits obtained in this paper because of the scattering present in the radio flux data, the electrons produced by DM annihilation can be possible seed electrons for the reacceleration, as well as secondary electrons of hadronic origin. A possible discriminant between these two classes of models is the flux produced in the gamma ray band, that in the case of DM-originated electrons should be more than two orders of magnitude smaller than the present Fermi-LAT upper limits, whereas in the hadronic case the expected gamma ray flux should be close to the value of present upper limits.
We examine the possibility that dark matter consists of charged massive particles (CHAMPs) in view of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies. The evolution of cosmological perturbations of CHAMP with other components is followed in a self
-consistent manner, without assuming that CHAMP and baryons are tightly coupled. We incorporate for the first time the kinetic re-coupling of the Coulomb scattering, which is characteristic of heavy CHAMPs. By a direct comparison of the predicted CMB temperature/polarization auto-correlations in CHAMP models and the observed spectra in the Planck mission, we show that CHAMPs leave sizable effects on CMB spectra if they are lighter than $10^{11},{rm GeV}$. Our result can be applicable to any CHAMP as long as its lifetime is much longer than the cosmic time at the recombination ($sim 4 times 10^{5}, {rm yr}$). An application to millicharged particles is also discussed.
The astronomical dark matter could be made of weakly interacting and massive particles. If so, these species would be abundant inside the Milky Way, where they would continuously annihilate and produce cosmic rays. Those annihilation products are pot
entially detectable at the Earth, and could provide indirect clues for the presence of dark matter species within the Galaxy. We will review here the various cosmic radiations which the dark matter can produce. We will examine how they propagate throughout the Milky Way and compare the dark matter yields with what pure astrophysical processes are expected to generate. The presence of dark matter substructures might enhance the signals and will be briefly discussed.
This article reviews the status of the field of dark matter as of summer 2017, when it was discussed at 35th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC 2017) in Busan, Korea. It is the write-up of a rapporteur talk on the status of dark matter searches given at the conference.
