TL;DR
This Dark Matter hunting is pretty popular.

Summary:We propose a search for low mass dark matter particles through momentum recoils caused by their scattering from trapped, nanometer-scale objects.
The Paper linked details a novel concept for detecting WIMPs. I hope to see more work performed on the idea in the future.

This one is particularly interesting as it would detect dark matter particles that interact only via gravity (which is kind of the null hypothesis for dark matter).

I'm glad I'm not paying for it. Oh,... wait,... :oldmad:

Likes ohwilleke and Oldman too
Jacobson’s work (1995) [1] demonstrated that Einstein’s equations can be derived from thermodynamic principles, suggesting gravity might emerge from the thermodynamic behavior of spacetime, tied to the entropy of horizons. Other researchers, such as Bekenstein [2] and Verlinde [3], have explored similar ideas, linking gravity to entropy and holographic principles. I’m interested in discussing how these thermodynamic approaches might apply to quantum gravity, particularly at the Planck...
