Intermediate summary 21 - -ray observation of dSphs is a powerful tool to probe the nature of WIMP . we should see dSphs as extended sources. in target dSphs. We quantify the systematic errors in our sensitivity to DM annihilation cross-section with CTA coming from the DM distribution in dSphs γ - In near future, we can go heavier with CTA, with which - Then we have to be careful about the DM distribution - However, it is difficult to model and still under debate.

Conclusion 31
Conclusion: hence their inner DM distribution becomes important. our sensitivity could differ by a factor of sure that we can access new parameter spaces, however, -Convolved with the CTA’s instrumental response, it is of dSphs is still under debate. 32 - - With CTA, we can resolve dSphs as extended sources, - We can access heavier WIMP in the near future. since they are rich in DM but poor in astrophysical . - dSphs are good targets to search the WIMP signature TeV is already successful. - WIMP search at E γ ≲ 𝒫 (1) γ ρ DM ∼ 10
