Research Progress Meeting

Title: Back to the Future With High Mass Dark Matter
Abstract: A number of theories predict that dark matter is a supermassive particle or composite state. Discovering dark matter in this high mass regime requires different approaches. I will survey recent developments, including composite dark matter that produces unique signatures in underground experiments, dark matter detectable through its fusion of nuclei in Antarctic ice, and halo substructures heating neutron stars. I will also survey certain experiments from the 80s and 90s, which still provide the best sensitivity to many varieties of high mass dark matter.
