Indirect searches for dark matter with neutrinos

This event is part of the HEE Seminar Series.

One of the strategies for dark matter detection is to search for the products of its self-annihilation or decay, such as antimatter, photons, or neutrinos. The later are particularly interesting since they can travel unaffected through the galactic scales. I'll present the searches for an excess of neutrinos from possible dark matter sources such as Sun, Earth's core and Galactic Center, compared to the expected atmospheric neutrino background, which were performed with 20 years of data collected with the Super-Kamiokande detector.
