In the tantalising book Dark Matter, James Kinross explores how the human microbiome has a big influence on our health and yet, rather like dark matter in cosmology, its story is still unfolding.
Dark MatterIT HAS been 30 years since my appendix and I parted company.
As I lay debilitated and miserable in hospital, I told myself the surgeon hadn’t removed anything vital, just a functionless relic. And an antibiotic drip was cleansing me of my foes, bacteria – after all, they had inflamed my appendix. Such thoughts stopped me feeling sorry for myself, but as James Kinross relates in

Direct Searches for Hidden-Photon Dark Matter with the SHUKET ExperimentHidden photons are dark matter candidates motivated by theories beyond the standard model of particle physics. They mix with conventional photons, and they can be detected through the very weak electromagnetic radiation they induce at the interface between a metal and the air. SHUKET [search for U(1) dark matter with an electromagnetic telescope] is a dedicated experiment sensitive to the hidden photon-induced signal. The results from a hidden photon search campaign are reported, with no significant detection of a dark matter signal. Exclusion limits are derived from the observed noise fluctuations in a 5--6.8 GHz frequency range, corresponding to a hidden photon mass region ranging from 20.8 to $28.3\text{ }\text{ }\ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{eV}$. SHUKET is currently the most sensitive instrument in this mass range, and the obtained limits on the kinetic mixing term constrain significantly dark matter models inspired from string theory.
