The right thing to do is preparing 5 papers describing how SUSY can beautifully fit 0 or 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 events at CDMS and submit the right paper as soon as possible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2846514233477399562.post-13407063312952740622009-12-17T04:58:53.032+01:002009-12-17T04:58:53.032+01:00Just curious, what if the dark matter distribution...Just curious, what if the dark matter distribution in the solar system is fairly clumpy? Could this be consistent with having observed no events last time, but a number of events now (assuming this is the case)? Maybe for the recent run, we went through a 'cloud' while during the previous run we went through 'clear skies'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2846514233477399562.post-11682856989784616162009-12-17T03:37:41.345+01:002009-12-17T03:37:41.345+01:00"I have it from a very well-known physicist t..."I have it from a very well-known physicist that CDMS will in fact announce that they have discovered dark matter tomorrow."<br /><br />"Discovered" is a strong word, you know.
