Recently there have been a flurry of News articles about the lack of success in
finding DM - but the favored candidate is still the WIMP
AFAIK there is no satisfactory definition for WIMPS {after all they are dark
and hard to observe} other than
1) Weakly interacting to an extreme but massive
2) Mass-energy of between 50 and 100 GeV fits into current theory
3) Suspiciously close to the Higgs in mass and other features

Since they are weakly interacting to a spectacular degree, they could and
probably do exist primarily in another dimension or as part of the Higgs field.
One possible decay channel would be for the Higgs boson to decay to two WIMPs,
each having a rest mass energy of half of the 126 GeV Higgs or about 63 GeV for
the WIMP. A putative buckyball of UDH would have about the same mass equal to
60 atoms of UDH as in the carbon model.
This is the candidate for WIMPS not yet considered – and in effect it is UDH in
the form of a bound H60 buckyball – perhaps hidden in the Higgs field which
itself is another dimension.
