A damper pin for damping adjacent turbine blades coupled to a rotor shaft includes an elongated body having a center portion that is disposed between a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion, center portion and second end portion at least partially define a generally arcuate top portion of the elongated body. At least a portion of the top portion may be configured to contact with a groove that is defined between the adjacent turbine blades. The first end portion and the second end portion have substantially semi-cylindrical cross sectional shapes and the center portion has a cylindrical cross sectional shape. A bottom portion of the elongated body diverges radially outwardly from the first end portion to the center portion and from the second end portion to the center portion.
