Nano meter Size Dirty Dark Matter Pearls, electron-signal, IMP or SIDM, not WIMP

Through several articles we have developed a model for dark matter as consisting of bubbles of a new (speculated) type of vacuum, starting from cm-sized pearls or balls down to atomic size ones and now we believe they have nanometer sizes. In the latest development of our model we have the bubbles of the new vacuum imbedded in dust grains very similar to the grains present in interstellar and intergalactic space anyway, although the presence of the bubble with a very large homolumo gap in its single electron spectrum influences the dust grain material so as to become denser and harder. We have earlier explained how our dark matter particles get stopped in the shielding, so that normally expected nucleonic collisions are not observable. The signal of the dark matter in the underground experiments rather becomes decays of excited particles actually with the energy of the homolumo gap, which is also equal to the photon energy of the X-ray line presumably observed astronomically from galaxy clusters etc. A new calculation here is a fitting of the velocity dependence of the dark matter self-interaction as estimated by Correa [15], using deviations from the only gravitationally interacting dark matter in dwarf galaxies. Let us stress that apart from the speculated new vacuum we have no new physics, and if the couplings in the Standard Model were adjusted to make degenerate vacua as speculated according to our Multiple Point Principle (MPP) we would only need the Standard Model, so dark matter would not require new physics.
