LUX has a peak sensitivity at a WIMP mass of 33 GeV/c2 (see below), with a sensitivity limit three times better than any previous experiment. LUX also has a sensitivity that is more than 20 times better than previous experiments for low-mass WIMPs, whose possible detection has been suggested by other experiments. Three candidate low-mass WIMP events recently reported in ultra-cold silicon detectors would have produced more than 1,600 events in LUX’s much larger detector, or one every 80 minutes in the recent run. No such signals were seen.

I claim that dark matter is a virtual particle quantum vacuum effect.
When the density of virtual fermion-antifermion pairs exceeds that of virtual bosons, we have gravitating vacuum.
The opposite is antigravitating dark energy.
This comes from GR in weak field limit

Grad^2phi ~ G(energy density)(1 + 3w)

w = -1 for all virtual particles from local Lorentz invariance + equivalence principle

(energy density of virtual fermion-antifermion pairs) is negative from the Pauli exclusion principle’s antisymmetric entangled states of identical fermions)

(energy density of virtual bosons) is positive from Einstein-Bose statistics symmetric entangled states of identical bosons.

Therefore, looking for real dark matter particles whizzing through space (on-mass-shell) is like looking for the motion of Earth through the mechanical Maxwell ether of Victorian physics with a Michelson-Morley interferometer - quaint.
