Constraints on decaying DMSame principle, same physics,
different “time dependence” of energy injection
DM Cirelli, FI, Ibarra, Panci, Tran:
preliminary results!
Constraints are not so strong:if the particles decay today, they did
less decay in the past…

Concluding
It is possible to use Early Universe astrophysical observables to constrain DM properties
Self-annihilating DM can inject enough energy (free electrons)to modify the cross correlation CMB spectra!
The detectability of a DM annihilation in the CMB signal is DM model dependent (annihilation channel)
Would you ever believe we have found DM if I told you there is an (even strong) anomaly in the TE CMB spectrum?
Signal comes from smooth, cold DM density field(can get rid of structure formation uncertainties!
And it rocks with SE)
