This is probably the paper "Galaxy clusters in high definition: A dark matter search" https://journals.aps.org/prd/pdf/10.1103/PhysRevD.107.023006. There are several limits inside, we should evaluate which ones to grab.

The paper report results on galaxy clusters Coma and Ophiucus in terms of indirect DM searches with radio-probes, and in particular with MeerKAT a precursor of SKA. The authors showed that, when computing surface brightness propertly, they can distinguish the DM halo. They claim their results are robust and they show they can be very competitive.

They produce very many exclusion lines, so it's very hard to extract all and we have to make a selection. Our personal selection is:

Figure 3 for the Brown and Rudick (BR) model, because it's the most recent. bb bar channel taking only the solid median line

Fig 5 same as fig 3 but for tautau

Same for Ophiucus using Govoni models, so Fig7
