Dr Roberta Sparvoli (University of Rome ”Tor Vergata”, and INFN Section of Rome ”Tor Vergata”, Rome, Italy)09/12/2010, 17:00After four years of data taking in space, the experiment PAMELA is showing very interesting features in cosmic rays that might change our basic vision of their mechanisms of production, acceleration and propagation in the galaxy. In addition, PAMELA measurements of cosmic antimatter fluxes are setting strong constraints to the nature of Dark Matter. In this talk PAMELA main results will be...Go to contribution page

Prof. Isabella Masina (Ferrara University and CP3-Origins)09/12/2010, 17:25Cosmology and astroparticles, dark matter searchesWe introduce new sum rules allowing to determine universal properties of the unknown component of the cosmic rays and show how they can be used to predict the positron fraction at energies not yet explored by current experiments and to constrain specific models.Go to contribution page

Prof. Federico Palmonari (INFN and University, Bologna)09/12/2010, 17:50Cosmology and astroparticles, dark matter searchesThe growing observational evidence for Dark Matter from astrophysical observations gives a solid base to the Cosmological Standar Model. On the other side, the Standard Model of particles and interactions has no answer on DM nature. Experimental evidence of DM from underground experiments is under scrutiny while recent results from space experiments have no clear interpretation. The...Go to contribution page

Dr Maurice LALOUM (retired CNRS/IN2P3/LPNHE Paris)09/12/2010, 18:15Cosmology and astroparticles, dark matter searchesMany essential paradoxes in the mechanical balance of the Galaxy are highlighted. We propose a unique and synthetic interpretation, including a cosmological theory of the origin of the observed cosmic rays, especially at the highest energies. It involves MATTER-ANTIMATTER ANNIHILATION in the median plane of the Milky Way, as a source of "DARK MATTER". We discuss the structure and balance of...Go to contribution page
