摘要：In this talk we show how future neutrino detectors could be used to break some of the degeneracies
in the dark matter (DM) parameter space and to test some of the DM properties. We consider
first the case of annihilations inside the Sun and show how detectors with good neutrino energy
resolution could help to discriminate between different annihilation channels (soft or hard) and
break their degeneracy with the DM-proton elastic scattering cross section. Then, we consider
DM annihilations and decays in the galactic halo. By making use of the fact that neutrinos are the
least detectable particles of the StandardModel and assuming DM only annihilates or decays into
neutrinos, we show how future neutrino detectors could be great tools to obtain general limits on
the total DM annihilation cross section and on the DM lifetime.
