Experiments with thin ZnS(Ag) scintillators provide evidence with C.L. > 99.99% for the existence of DArk Electric Matter Objects - daemons (presumably negatively charged Planckian particles with M ~ 10^-5 g) captured from the Galactic disk…
A month-long observation of two horizontal ZnS(Ag) scintillating screens, 1 m^2 in area and located one above the other a certain distance apart, revealed about 10 correlated signals, whose time shift corresponds to an average velocity of…
With a probability >99% there are grounds to believe that our works on detection of the Dark Electric Matter Objects (daemons), which were lauched in 1996, are crowned with success. The daemons are the relic elementary Planckian black…
Detection of negative daemons, DArk Electric Matter Objects, viz. Planckian supermassive (~2*10^-5 g) particles, whose population has been detected in March 2000 to populate near-Earth, almost circular, heliocentric orbits (NEACHOs), is…
During a week of the March maximum in 2011, two oppositely installed direction-sensitive TEU-167d Dark Electron Multipliers (DEMs) recorded a flux of daemons from the near-Earth almost circular heliocentric orbits (NEACHOs). The flux…
The experiments on detection of daemons captured into geocentric orbits, which are based on the postulated fast decay of daemon-containing nuclei, have been continued. By properly varying the experimental parameters, it has become possible…
Detection of daemons in low-background conditions in September 2005 and March 2006 has provided evidence for the expected to occur at that times maxima in the flux of daemons with V ~ 10-15 km s-1, which hit the Earth from near-Earth,…
The simplest version of the daemon paradigm suggests the modulated 2-6-keV range events in DAMA/NaI and DAMA/LIBRA detectors are caused by the iodine ions knocked out elastically by the electrically neutral c-daemons moving with V = 30-50…
Our prediction that the more massive DAMA/LIBRA detector would detect a smaller number of events per unit of mass and time than the DAMA/NaI system has got confirmation. This is easy to understand, because DM objects are by far not the…
Negative Dark Electric Matter Objects, daemons, have been detected by means of ZnS(Ag) scintillator screens. These objects are apparently relic elementary Planckian black holes. The scintillations in ZnS(Ag) are excited by electrons and…
The daemon-stimulated proton decay is capable of providing an appreciable part of the Sun luminosity as well as nonelectron flavor component in the solar neutrino flux. This follows (1) from our experiments on detection of negative daemons…
Detection of the September maximum in the primary near-Earth daemon flux at high (~60o) Northern latitudes by our set-up with a plane horizontal scintillator is plagued by purely geometric factors; indeed, because of the Earth's rotation…
The DAMA experiment clearly observes a small oscillatory signal. The observed yearly modulation is in phase with the Earth's motion around the Sun. Recent reference [Vavra, 2014] suggested that the DAMA experiment observes a WIMP of much…
An analysis of DAMA data (as reconstructed from DAMA publications) confirms the presence of an annual oscillation, but with a lower significance level than that claimed by DAMA. The phase of their signal is 0.39 +/- 0.02, corresponding to a…
The DAMA/NaI and DAMA/LIBRA annual modulation data, which may be interpreted as a signal for the existence of weakly interacting dark matter (WIMPs) in our galactic halo, are re-examined in light of new measurements of the local velocity…
In 1997, we proposed a model of the ball lightning (BL) whose activity is accounted for by energy release in the fusion of light nuclei, most probably, carbon in organic fibers (Proc. ISBL 97, p.157). The fusion is provided by catalytic…
The experiments of 2005 aimed at detection of low-velocity (~10-15 km s-1) daemons falling on to the Earth's surface from Near-Earth, Almost Circular Heliocentric Orbits (NEACHOs) have corroborated once more the existence of the March…
The annually modulating $\sim$ keV scintillations observed in the DAMA/NaI and DAMA/Libra experiments might be due to dark matter - electron scattering. Such an explanation is now favoured given the stringent constraints on nuclear recoil…
The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) spacecraft has transited the inner-most regions of the zodiacal cloud and detects impacts to the spacecraft body via its electric field instrument. Multiple dust populations have been proposed to explain the PSP…
If dark matter is composed of weakly interacting particles, Earth's orbital motion may induce a small annual variation in the rate at which these particles interact in a terrestrial detector. The DAMA collaboration has identified at a…
