Planck 2018 constraints on DM mass and annihilation cross-section. Solid straight lines show joint CMB constraints on several annihilation channels (plotted using different colours), based on pann < 3.2 × 10−28 cm3 s−1 GeV−1. We also show the 2σ preferred region suggested by the AMS proton excess (dashed ellipse) and the Fermi Galactic centre excess according to four possible models with references given in the text (solid ellipses), all of them computed under the assumption of annihilation into (for other channels the ellipses would move almost tangentially to the CMB bounds). We additionally show the 2σ preferred region suggested by the AMS/PAMELA positron fraction and Fermi/H.E.S.S. electron and positron fluxes for the leptophilic μ+μ− channel (dotted contours). Assuming a standard WIMP-decoupling scenario, the correct value of the relic DM abundance is obtained for a “thermal cross-section” given as a function of the mass by the black dashed line.
