Understand

We consider the prospects for the indirect detection of low mass dark matter which couples dominantly to quarks.

If the center of mass energy is below about 280 MeV, the kinematically allowed final states will be dominated by photons and neutral pions, producing striking signatures at gamma ray telescopes.
In fact, an array of new instruments have been proposed, which would greatly improve sensitivity to photons in this energy range.
We find that planned instruments can improve on current sensitivity to dark matter models of this type by up to a few orders of magnitude.
