Verification of Indirect Indications of the Nature of Dark Matter

ORAL

Abstract

Several observations have drawn considerable interest as potential indications for indirect signatures of the nature of dark matter. Radio synchrotron towards the galactic center, the ``WMAP haze,'' high-energy cosmic ray electron/positron observations, as well as the behavior of dark matter in small scale structure, are potential signals for properties of the dark matter. I will discuss how current and future observations will test the dark matter interpretation of these signals.
