 Using fits of these dark matter profiles to the rotation data of the milky way predictions for the density distribution of the dark matter can be made \cite{Fornego2004,Evans2004}. Assuming parameters for the SUSY models determine the neutralino mass, the thermally averaged annihilation cross section and the gamma yield. Combining both models about the dark matter distribution and SUSY predictions for the gamma flux from SUSY particle dark matter annihilation are derived.
 
-Figure \ref{fig:exclusion_lmits} shows exclusion limits taking the sensitivity of MAGIC from MC simulations into account for different sources and predictions from typical allowed SUSY modells in the plane $N_{\gamma}(E_{\gamma}>E_{\mathrm{thresh}})\langle \sigma v \rangle$ vs $m_{\chi}$. Due to its relative vicinity the Galactic Center yield the largest expected flux from particle dark matter annihilation. Nevertheless this flux is more than one order of magnitude below the current MAGIC sensitivity. Also the observed flux from the HESS experiment way above the theoretical expectation.
