Experimental searches for DPDM

All files are true to their original sources, i.e. without any rescaling

Updated Experimental searches for DPDM

These have been recast using the scheme detailed in arXiv:2105.04565 so they all assume the fixed polarisation scenario for the DP polarisation distribution around the Earth. They also all assume 0.45 GeV/cm^3 for the DM density and are defined as exclusion limits at 95% CL.
