Dedicated Indirect Searches for Dark Matter Using Antideuterons    [PDF]

C. Hailey, T. Aramaki, P. von Doetinchem, R. A. Ong

This white paper describes the basic idea for indirect dark matter searches using antideuterons. Low energy antideuterons produced by dark matter annihilations/decays provide an attractive dark matter signature, due to the low astrophysical background. The current and future experiments have a strong potential to detect antideuterons from dark matter. They are complementary not only with each other, but also with other dark matter searches.
