It would be a spectacular triumph for CERN to produce a particle that might constitute the dark matter (like the WIMP you suggest). While possible, I consider this outcome to be unlikely.https://twitter.com/malnadi/status/1132847678663143430 …

Yet! Or Ever?
Yet. But the wimps parameter space is as I mentioned heavily heavily constrained. You can see in this plot that the cross section is getting "pushed" lower and lower at higher mass. This is why people are now exploring the avenue of "light" dark matterpic.twitter.com/n1EaZ2Rc2c

There comes a point at which the cross section becomes so small that you conclude that it's essentially zero, implying the particle just doesn't exist.

Is there a place I can find this paper? I'm genuinely curious about this graph. Seems there are correlations to draw between this and https://arxiv.org/abs/1010.4300

I’m not sure of the original paper but I can try to hunt it down
