The following question was asked in the course of discussion
Federico Fraschetti: My question is: there has been some discussion recently about boost by Sommerfeld enhancement of WIMP annihilation. Is this further constrained by last Fermi observatrions?

Decaying dark matter as explanation for cosmic positron and electron excess in VIA lecture by Alejandro Ibarra.
Questions and comments to this lecture
raan:Should we distinguish cases of majorana and dirac fermions for decaying DM fermions?
konstantin b.:Didn’t you use any parameterization of solar modulation which properly fits Pamela data?
Richard Weiner (comment):Heavy fermions in the mass range considered by the speaker were predicted for the case that the Higgs mass exceeds 1 TeV. Unfortunately these fermions unlike the fermions considered here, interact strongly,
raan:How one can estimate affects of decay of DM on early universe - BBN, for example, and so on?
Answers to these questions in the record of VIA lecture.

Puzzles of high energy electrons in the results of ATIC experiment. Record of VIA lecture by Joachim Isbert will come soon.
Answers to the question by
Konstantin Belotsky (MEPhI, Russia) :what is the probability to treat by mistake a proton as electron/positron?
and other questions put on during discussion are available in this record.
