Revisit of cosmic ray antiprotons from dark matter annihilation with updated constraints on the background model from AMS-02 and collider data

We study the cosmic ray antiprotons with updated constraints on the propagation, proton injection, and solar modulation parameters based on the newest AMS-02 data near the Earth and Voyager data in the local interstellar space, and on the cross section of antiproton production due to proton-proton collisions based on new collider data. We use a Bayesian approach to properly consider the uncertainties of the model predictions of both the background and the dark matter (DM) annihilation components of antiprotons. We find that including an extra component of antiprotons from the annihilation of DM particles into a pair of quarks can improve the fit to the AMS-02 antiproton data considerably. The favored mass of DM particles is about $60\sim100$ GeV, and the annihilation cross section is just at the level of the thermal production of DM ($\langle\sigma v\rangle \sim O(10^{-26})$ cm$^3$~s$^{-1}$).Comment: 15 pages, 5 figures and 1 table; JCAP accepted versio

In the title compound, C14H11FN2O2, an intra­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond influences the mol­ecular conformation; the two benzene rings form a dihedral angle of 18.4 (3)°. The F atom is disordered over two positions in a 0.717 (5):0.283 (5) ratio. In the crystal, inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains extending along the c axis
