Description
Cold interstellar gas clouds are a powerful way of probing Beyond Standard Model (BSM) interactions, such as those of dark matter, through their calorimetric impact. The immense size and extremely long lifetime of these clouds makes them uniquely sensitive to a variety of BSM interactions, from those ultra-light dark matter acting like a classical background field to ultra-heavy composites objects. I will discuss the variety of BSM interactions that can be constrained using these gas clouds.
