New SUSY analysis <strong>with</strong> IceCube<br />
What can <strong>the</strong> muon signal tell me?<br />
Roughly:<br />
✗ Number – how much annihilation is go<strong>in</strong>g on <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Sun</strong><br />
⇒ <strong>in</strong>fo on σSD , σSI and <br />
✗ Spectrum – sensitive to WIMP mass mχ and branch<strong>in</strong>g<br />
fractions BF <strong>in</strong>to different annihilation channels χ<br />
✗ Direction – how likely it is that <strong>the</strong>y come from <strong>the</strong> <strong>Sun</strong><br />
In model-<strong>in</strong>dependent analyses a lot of this <strong>in</strong><strong>for</strong>mation is ei<strong>the</strong>r discarded or not<br />
given <strong>with</strong> f<strong>in</strong>al limits<br />
Goal:<br />
Use as much of this <strong>in</strong><strong>for</strong>mation on σSD , σSI , , mχ and BF (χ ) as possible to<br />
directly constra<strong>in</strong> specific po<strong>in</strong>ts and regions <strong>in</strong> WIMP model parameter spaces<br />
