摘要
We reanalyze results of various experiments, the original purpose of which was not for the Q-ball or the Fermi-ball searches. Based on these analysis in addition to the available data on Q balls we obtain rather stringent bounds on flux, mass, and a typical energy scale of Q balls and also those of Fermi balls. In case these nontopological solitons are the main component of the dark matter of the galaxy we find that only such solitons with very large quantum numbers are allowed. We also estimate how sensitive the future experiments are to searches for Q balls and Fermi balls.
