Abstract

Dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) are ideal targets for Dark Matter (DM) indirect searches due to their high DM content and their negligible expected astrophysical background. In this presentation, we report on the combined analysis of the observations of 20 dSphs by Fermi-LAT, HAWC, H.E.S.S., MAGIC, and VERITAS collaborations in the search for DM, focusing on the Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) scenario. The combined analysis allows us to maximize the sensitivity by combining individual data sets from all five experiments for which the energy ranges of the search overlap. New constraints, spanning a range of DM masses from 5 GeV to 100 TeV, on the velocity-weighted cross section for DM self annihilation will be presented.
