Description
The gravitino in models with a small R-parity violation is a well-motivated dark matter candidate that is leading to a cosmological scenario consistent with big bang nucleosynthesis and thermal leptogenesis. Its lifetime is sufficiently long since its decays are suppressed by the Planck-scale as well as the small R-parity violating parameter.
We want to discuss the signals in different cosmic ray species coming from the decay of gravitino dark matter, namely gamma rays, positrons, antiprotons, antideuterons and neutrinos. Comparison to cosmic ray data can be used to constrain the parameters of the model and to predict fluxes for other cosmic ray channels.
