Abstract

The effect of some possible nonstandard weakly interacting massive particle velocity distributions, like the debris flows recently proposed, on the direct dark matter detection rates is investigated. We find that such distributions may be deciphered from the data, especially if the time variation of the event rates due to the annual motion of the Earth is observed.
