Description
A number of theories predict that dark matter is a very massive particle or composite state. Discovering dark matter in this high mass regime requires different approaches. This talk covers recent developments, including composite dark matter that produces unique signatures in underground experiments and dark matter detectable through Bremsstrahlung radiation in Antarctic ice. We also survey certain experiments from the 1980s and 1990s, which still provide the best sensitivity to many varieties of high mass dark matter.
