[Seminars] [HEP Lunch] No speaker, but still meet at noon.

[Antonio Boveia]

No one bet on one of the pre-2014 signals (AMS, COUPP, DAMA, etc.)? :)

I’m in for 2016, but I don’t think any of the experiments could lay sole claim to a discovery. If it happens, it’s going to be a combination of evidence from multiple types of experiments.
