[[File:Direct Detection Constraints.png |frame|Figure 2: Plot showing the parameter space of dark matter particle mass and interaction cross section with nucleons. The LUX and SuperCDMS limits exclude the parameter space above the labelled curves. The CoGeNT and CRESST-II regions indicate regions which were previously thought to correspond to dark matter signals, but which were later explained with mundane sources. The DAMA and CDMS-Si data remain unexplained, and these regions indicate the preferred parameter space if these anomalies are due to dark matter.|thumb|426x426px]]
 
There are currently no confirmed detections of dark matter from direct detection experiments, with the strongest exclusion limits coming from the [[Large Underground Xenon experiment|LUX]] and [[Cryogenic Dark Matter Search|SuperCDMS]] experiments, as shown in figure 2.
