Abstract
Dark Matter that is composed of WIMP remnants of incomplete particle-antiparticle annihilation in the early universe experiences ongoing annihilation in gravitationally bound large scale structure. This annihilation will have important consequences in the perhaps distant cosmic future, as the annihilation time-scale becomes comparable to the age of the universe. Much of large scale structure, from galaxy satellites to galaxy clusters will disappear.
