In this work we study the constraints on the dark matter interaction with the standard model particles, from the observations of dark matter relic density, the direct detection experiments of CDMS and XENON, and the indirect detection of thep/p ratio by PAMELA. A model independent way is adopted in the study by constructing the effective interaction operators between dark matter and standard model particles. The most general 4-fermion operators are investigated. We find that the constraints from different observations are complementary with each other. Especially the spin independent scattering gives very strong constraints for corresponding operators. In some cases the indirect detection ofp/p data can actually be more sensitive than the direct detection or relic density for light dark matter ( 70 GeV).PACS numbers: 95.35.+d, 95.30.Cq, 95.85.Ry

We investigated the vacuum potential barriers of various graphene edges terminated with hydrogen, oxygen, hydroxyl group and ether group respectively. It is found that the exchange-correlation potential correction is significant to the edge structures with electronegativity higher than carbon. The correction leads to the local work function decreased by more than 1. eV for the O terminated edge, while the local work function of H and OH terminated edges remain unchanged.
