  3. WMAP

  4. WMAP Haslam et al. (1982) Finkbeiner et al. (1999) thermal dust synchrotron H α (Finkbeiner, 2003) free-free

  5. template fitting s 23 x + f 23 x + d 23 x = - c 23 x 23 GHz

  6. template fitting s 23 x + f 23 x + d 23 x = - c 23 x 23 GHz s( ν i ), f( ν i ), d( ν i ) represent estimates of the synchrotron, free-free, and dust spectra

  7. determining foreground spectra P r a = w Multi-Linear Regression r Template Fit a = ( P / σ ) + ( w / σ ) = P r - Bands are completely decoupled 2 2 a − w r P a − w 2 ≡ χ - Spectral shapes are unconstrained 2 σ σ σ - Constant across the sky Dobler & Finkbeiner, 2008 TEMPLATES CMB ESTIMATORS - Synchrotron: Haslam et al ( 1982 ) - 6 different types - Dust: FDS99 ( Finkbeiner et al 1999 ) - introduces a cross-correlation bias - Free-free: H α Map (WHAM, SHASSA, - mean zero VTSS; assembled and corrected - largest source of uncertainty for dust by Finkbeiner 2003 )

  13. the haze • Multi-linear regression fit K: 23 GHz • Excess towards the GC Ka: 33 GHz Q: 41 GHz Dobler & Finkbeiner (2008)

  14. the haze • Multi-linear regression fit K: 23 GHz • Excess towards the GC Ka: 33 GHz Separate, hard synchrotron component Upcoming surveys at 5 GHz Q: 41 GHz (CBASS), 15 GHz, and especially Planck will provide A LOT more information! Dobler & Finkbeiner (2008)

  20. the haze spectrum • Looks like synchrotron with, α E 2 dN/dE ∝ E -0.1 ≤ α ≤ 0.2 • If it is synchrotron, it requires – hard e + e - spectrum – extended emission • Very difficult to produce astrophysically Dobler & Finkbeiner (2008)

  21. the haze spectrum • Looks like synchrotron with, α E 2 dN/dE ∝ E -0.1 ≤ α ≤ 0.2 Can be confirmed by ICS signal in Fermi ! Dobler & Finkbeiner (2008)

  29. the haze... facts and myths

  30. the haze... facts and myths misconceptions

  31. the haze: facts . foreground spectra have significant uncertainties - CMB cross-correlations (systematic) - template approximations

  32. the haze: facts

  33. CMB “cross-correlation” bias

  34. CMB “cross-correlation” bias s 23 x + f 23 x + d 23 x = - c 23 x 23 GHz

  35. CMB “cross-correlation” bias → + b s x

  36. CMB “cross-correlation” bias s 23 x + f 23 x + d 23 x ( ) = - c 23 x + b s x 23 GHz

  37. CMB “cross-correlation” bias s 23 x + f 23 x + d 23 x ( ) = - c 23 x + b s x 23 GHz s ν → s ν - c ν x b s f ν → f ν - c ν x b f d 23 → d ν - c ν x b d

  38. the haze: facts This ambiguity will be eliminated with Planck

  39. the haze: facts . foreground spectra have significant uncertainties - CMB cross-correlations (systematic) - template approximations . spectrum is harder than synchrotron elsewhere in the galaxy - I SN ∝ ν - α ⇒ dN/dE ∝ E -(2 α +1) - I haze ∝ ν -( α -0.5) ⇒ dN/dE ∝ E -(2 α +1)

  40. the haze: facts Dobler & Finkbeiner (2008)

  41. the haze: facts . spectra of foreground emissions have uncertainties - CMB cross-correlations (systematic) - template approximations . spectrum is harder than synchrotron elsewhere in the galaxy - I SN ∝ ν - α ⇒ dN/dE ∝ E -(2 α +1) - I haze ∝ ν -( α -0.5) ⇒ dN/dE ∝ E -(2 α +1) . morphology is roughly spherical, but there are inhomogeneities

  42. the haze: facts K-band: 23 GHz WMAP - CMB - free-free - (thermal and spinning) dust - (soft) synchrotron

  43. the haze: myths the haze... . does not exist... nobody else sees it

  44. the haze: myths Bennett et al, 2003 Hinshaw et al, 2007 Bottino et al, 2008 Dickinson et al, 2009

  45. the haze: myths Bennett et al, 2003 Hinshaw et al, 2007 Bottino et al, 2008 Dickinson et al, 2009 (implied 23 GHz)

  46. the haze: myths the haze... . does not exist... nobody else sees it . should be strongly polarized

  47. the haze: myths WMAP 23 GHz polarized emission Kogut et al, 2007 Note: spinning dust is important when comparing to 23 GHz total intensity!

  48. the haze: myths the haze... . does not exist... nobody else sees it . should be strongly polarized . is easily explained by SNe

  49. the haze: myths the haze... . does not exist... nobody else sees it . should be strongly polarized . is easily explained by SNe - diffused haze spectrum is (roughly) as hard as fermi spectrum extending over ~ ( 4 kpc) 3 volume

  50. the haze: myths the haze... . does not exist... nobody else sees it . should be strongly polarized . is easily explained by SNe . is easily explained by pulsars

  51. the haze: myths Injection spectrum : dN/dE = N 0 × f(E) with N 0 = ??? and f(E) = ??? ⇒ can (likely) fit the haze spectrum Spatial distribution : ln ρ (r,z) = -r/r 0 - |z|/z 0 with r 0 = 4.5 kpc and z 0 = 0.08 kpc ⇒ cannot fit the morphology

  52. the haze: myths the haze... . does not exist... nobody else sees it . should be strongly polarized . is easily explained by SNe . is easily explained by pulsars . is easily explained by small spectral index variation of Haslam

  53. the haze: myths WMAP data w/o haze template Dobler & Finkbeiner (2008) w/ haze template the haze is morphologically distinct from Haslam

  54. the haze: myths the haze... . does not exist... nobody else sees it . should be strongly polarized . is easily explained by SNe . is easily explained by pulsars . is easily explained by small spectral index variation of Haslam . is direct evidence of particle DM annihilation

  55. the haze: myths Galactic/baryon params: B ~ 10 µ G K(E) ~ 10 28 cm 2 /s Dark matter params: ρ = ρ (r) M ~ 100 GeV < σ v> ~ few x10 -26 cm 3 /s the haze is consistent with a WIMP annihilation scenario

  56. the haze: myths Galactic/baryon params: B ~ 10 µ G K(E) ~ 10 28 cm 2 /s Dark matter params: ρ = ρ (r) M ~ 100 GeV < σ v> ~ few x10 -26 cm 3 /s the haze is consistent with a WIMP annihilation scenario but again... there are large astrophysical uncertainties!

  57. the haze: myths the haze... . does not exist... nobody else sees it . should be strongly polarized . is easily explained by SNe . is easily explained by pulsars . is easily explained by small spectral index variation of Haslam . is direct evidence of particle DM annihilation . DM model over-produces synchrotron at high latitudes

  58. the haze: myths Galactic/baryon params: B ~ 10 µ G K(E) ~ 10 28 cm 2 /s Dark matter params: ρ = ρ (r) M ~ 100 GeV < σ v> ~ few x10 -26 cm 3 /s the haze is consistent with a WIMP annihilation scenario but again... there are large astrophysical uncertainties!

  59. comments and the future of the haze . boundary conditions - dN/dE → 0 at boundary not very realistic - spherical halo with K(E) → K(E,r,z) . full astro-uncertainties analysis for cross section and masses - Galactic magnetic field: ≥ 2 (amplitude, shape, turbulence, etc.) - ISRF: ~1.2-1.5 (see Porter et al, 2008 ) - DM halo shape: ??? (local density ~2 , radial profile, sub-[sub-]structures ~5-10 ) - uncertainties in haze analysis, etc... . Fermi ICS emission towards the GC (regardless of origin) .
