Abstract
We study the fluxes of anti-deuterons that could be produced by annihilations in the galactic halo of Dark Matter particles with multi-TeV mass and a large annihilation cross section, as indicated by the recent PAMELA results. The model of Minimal Dark Matter (MDM) is an example in this category. We find that the fluxes are well within the reach of planned experiments for DM candidates that annihilate mainly into quark pairs, and also extend into the multi-GeV range above the expected astrophysical background. They are instead less promising if the main annihilation channel is into gauge bosons.
