dc.descriptionWe consider a model in which dark matter consists of a large self-interacting component (SIDM particles) and a small component with strong interactions with baryons (SIMPs). We show that the DAMA annual modulation signal can be caused by SIDM particles interacting with SIMPs trapped in iodine nuclei in the DAMA/NaI detector.
