Dark disk model could be a remedy for dark matter (DM) explanation of positron anomaly (PA) in cosmic rays (CR). The main difficulty in PA explanation relates to cosmic gamma-radiation which is inevitably produced in DM annihilation or decay leading to tension with respective observation data. Introduction of “active” (producing CR) DM component concentrating in galactic disk alleviates this tension. Earlier, we considered 2-lepton modes, with branching ratios being chosen to fit in the best way all the observation data. Here we considered, in the framework of the same dark disk model, two cases: 2-body final state annihilation and 4-body one, and in each case a quark mode is added to the leptonic ones. It is shown that 4-body mode case is a little better than 2-body one from viewpoint of quality of observation data description at the fixed all other parameters (of CR propagation, background, disk height). The values of DM particle mass around 350[Formula: see text]GeV and 500[Formula: see text]GeV are more favorable for 2- and 4-body modes, respectively. Higher values would improve description of data on positrons only but accounting for data on gamma-radiation prevents it because of unwanted more abundant high-energy gamma production. Inclusion of the quark modes improves a little fitting data in both 4- and 2-body mode cases, contrary to naive expectations. In fact, quark mode has a bigger gammas yield than that of most gamma-productive leptonic mode — tau, but they are softer due to bigger final state hadron multiplicity.

Abstract Energy Transfer in Some Liquid Organic Scintillator Systems Experimental results of fluorescence induced by high energy (gamma radiation) excitation in solutions of various solutes (isoeugenole, methylisoeugenole, 2-phenylindole, N-phenyl-2-naphthyl-amine, acenaphthene, 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene and 2,5-diphenyloxazole) in various solvents (benzene, toluene, xylene and xylene/n-butanol) are compared with the Bothe equation. Good agree­ ment was found with the Bothe equation which takes into account the fluorescence of solute and solvent. A linear dependence of the fluorescence intensity maximum Jmax on P/(R-K) for different solutes in a given solvent was found. A similar dependence was also found for 2,5-diphenyloxazole in xylene/n-butanol mixtures. An interpretation of the observed effects is given.


In a previous paper we gave an account of an investigation of the secondary radiation produced when different elements are irradiated with the high energy γ-rays of thorium C". The present paper describes an extension of this investigation. It will be reduced that confusion with the ordinary scattered radiation was almost entirely eliminated by examining the secondary radiation in a direction making a large angle with the primary beam, since under these conditions not only is the Compton radiation relatively very much weaker, but in addition it is comparatively soft and is easily absorbed in the radiator itself, or in a very small thickness of absorber, owing to the large increase in wave-length at this large angle of scattering.

During winter 1969 the 10 m optical reflector at Mt. Hopkins, Arizona, was used to search for periodic gamma ray emission above 1011 eV from NP 0532. Based on predicted optical period and phase, approximately 57 h of data were summed together. No evidence of pulsed radiation was found.
