Dark Matter Distribution

This paper is intended as an introduction to the theory of weak lensing. A review of the inversion formula introduced by Kaiser and Squires is presented. We then prove the formula of the aperture densitometry method in a simple way that allows a clear understanding of where the various terms come from. This is particularly useful to measure quantitatively masses in any region of a lens. We then summarize what has been learned from observations of strong lensing about the dark matter distribution; weak lensing should provide similar information on larger scales in clusters of galaxies.

Rule Out

Non-baryonic, or "dark", matter is believed to be a major component of the total mass budget of the Universe. We review the candidates for particle dark matter and discuss the prospects for direct detection (via interaction of dark matter particles with laboratory detectors) and indirect detection (via observations of the products of dark matter self-annihilations), focusing in particular on the Galactic center, which is among the most promising targets for indirect detection studies. The gravitational potential at the Galactic center is dominated by stars and by the supermassive black hole, and the dark matter distribution is expected to evolve on sub-parsec scales due to interaction with these components. We discuss the dominant interaction mechanisms and show how they can be used to rule out certain extreme models for the dark matter distribution, thus increasing the information that can be gleaned from indirect detection searches.
