<p>We consider the phenomenology of the Magnetic Inelastic Dark Matter model, specifically its capture and subsequent annihilation in the Sun. By using the most recent data from the IceCube and Super- Kamiokande neutrino detection experiments, we are able to put limits on the dipole moment of this WIMP candidate for masses ranging from 100 GeV to 10 TeV with a mass-splitting ranging from 0 to 200 keV. Limits are placed on a 100 GeV WIMP with magnetic dipole interactions as low as 2.6 × 10^−6µN for an inelastic parameter of 100 keV</p> / Master of Science (MSc)
