Dark Matter searches using gravitational wave bar detectors: quark nuggets and newtorites

M. Bassan, E. Coccia, S. D'Antonio +10

Many experiments have searched for supersymmetric WIMP dark matter, with null results. This may suggest to look for more exotic possibilities, for example compact ultra-dense quark…

Commissioning of the new taggers of the KLOE-2 experiment

D. Babusci, P. Ciambrone, M. Mascolo +4

In order to fully reconstruct the gamma gamma processes (e+e- -> e+e- gamma gamma) in the energy region of the phi meson production, new detectors along the DAFNE beam line have be…
