Description

The various problems and advantages of using gamma-rays for indirect dark matter will be discussed, including spectral and angular signatures from the galactic centre, dwarf spheroidal galaxies, galaxy clusters and larger structures. Complementarity between these targets will be discussed, as well as between different dark matter detection methods. The feasibility of a dedicated indirect detection experiment using gamma-rays will be briefly discussed.
