Abstract
I first outline new results on the angular modulation of WIMP dark matter scattering on targets in terrestrial laboratories, based on our uncertainties of the WIMP halo distribution, I then outline an exciting new result which indicates that for the high end of allowed SUSY WIMP scattering cross sections there exists a new distribution of WIMP dark matter in our solar system which could produce a dramatically different signal from halo WIMP dark matter in terrestrial detectors.
