Description

Next-generation neutrino telescopes offer a powerful probe of high-energy dark matter, a regime that remains largely unexplored. We forecast the sensitivity of TRIDENT to dark matter annihilation in the Galactic Centre over $10^3$ to $10^5$ GeV. The analysis is carried out with all-flavour neutrino interactions, showing that cascade-like events can offer a promising search channel, complementary to traditional track events. We further demonstrate that Galactic neutrinos from cosmic-ray interactions with interstellar gas constitute an important background, particularly at high energies, and should be included in future dark matter searches.
