The dark matter (DM) parallel session DM2 of the 14th Marcel Grossmann Meeting was enriched by several contributions about the results and the strategies in the study and in the detection of DM particles in the Galactic halo. In the following, an overview of the latest results in this field will be summarized. A particular care will be given to the results obtained by exploiting the model independent DM annual modulation signature for the presence of DM particles in the galactic halo. Results from the other experiments using different procedures, different techniques and different target materials will be shortly addressed as well as implications and experimental perspectives.

It is known that the majority (about 80%) of the matter in the universe is not visible, but rather a hypothetical "Dark Matter". The existence of Dark Matter has been postulated to explain the discrepancies between the estimated mass of visible matters in the galaxies, and their gravitational effects. Although it has been postulated for over 70 years, and has been commonly accepted by most scientists, the essence of the Dark Matter has not yet been understood. In particular, we still do not know what constitutes the Dark Matter. Direct detection of the Dark Matter is therefore one of the most important issues in physics.

Abstract Sub-GeV mass dark matter particles whose collisions with nuclei would not deposit sufficient energy to be detected, could instead be revealed through their interaction with electrons. Analyses of data from direct detection experiments usually require assuming a local dark matter halo velocity distribution. In the halo-independent analysis method, properties of this distribution are instead inferred from direct dark matter detection data, which allows then to compare different data without making any assumption on the uncertain local dark halo characteristics. This method has so far been developed for and applied to dark matter scattering off nuclei. Here we demonstrate how this analysis can be applied to scattering off electrons.
