DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Andrea Albert (Los Alamos National Lab)\nEvidence su
 ggests ~85% of the mass in the Universe is dark matter (DM). Several promi
 sing DM theories predict that it is a fundamental particle. The most famou
 s of which is the Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP). WIMPs that a
 nnihilate at a weak-scale cross section that were in thermal equilibrium i
 n the Universe produce the observed DM abundance today. DM particles are t
 heorized to interact and produce standard model particles\, like gamma ray
 s. So far\, no definitive gamma-ray signal has been detected\, but current
  experiments have started excluding several thermal WIMP models. I will di
 scuss the current status of DM searches with gamma-ray observatories like 
 the Fermi LAT and HAWC. I will also discuss how both future analysis with 
 current observatories and future observatories like CTA and SWGO will prob
 e thermal WIMP models for masses from 5 GeV to ~100 TeV.\n\nhttps://indico

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Moritz Hütten (Max Planck Institute for Physics)\nT
 he Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) represents the next-generation ground-b
 ased gamma-ray observatory in the energy range between 30 GeV and 300 TeV.
  It will open the window to gamma-ray searches for annihilation or decay o
 f heavy (TeV) Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) in astrophysica
 l Dark Matter (DM) budgets with unprecedented sensitivity. In this talk\, 
 I will review the current prospects for WIMP searches with CTA in dwarf sp
 heroidal galaxies orbiting our Milky Way\, enhanced annihilation in close-
 by dark halos\, and galaxy clusters of the local Universe. I will also out
 line the current knowledge of the DM targets and foreseen observation stra
 tegies\, on which the success of the searches crucially depends.\n\nhttps:

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Gabrijela Zaharijas (University of Nova Gorica)\nHig
 h-energy gamma rays are among the most promising tools to constrain or rev
 eal the nature of dark matter (DM)\, in particular the Weakly Interacting 
 Massive Particles models.  The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is well int
 o its pre-construction phase and will soon probe the high-energy gamma-ray
  sky in the 20 GeV - 300 TeV energy range.  Thanks to its improved energy 
 and angular resolutions as well as significantly larger effective area\, t
 he CTA will probe a parameter space of heavier dark matter (above 100 GeV)
 \, with unprecedented sensitivity\, reaching the DM thermal annihilation r
 ate at the TeV regime. \n\nThis talk will summarise the planned DM search 
 strategies with CTA\, focusing on the signal of DM in the centre of our Ga
 laxy. As observed with the Fermi LAT at lower energies\, this region exhib
 its complex large-scale gamma-ray emission and the CTA is expected to be t
 he first ground based observatory able to detect it. In this talk we repor
 t on the collaboration effort to study the impact of extended astrophysica
 l backgrounds on DM search\, based on the astrophysical emission observed 
 with the Fermi LAT at lower energies and to suggest the promising data ana
 lysis and observational strategies for the upcoming CTA data.\n\nhttps://i
