Why it is here
A target-material test gives opposite, near-binary predictions for exothermic and Higgsino interpretations.
Machine-assisted summary
The authors propose an argon-target discriminator: an exothermic pseudo-Dirac interpretation predicts a strong recoil line near 336 keV, whereas the endothermic Higgsino benchmark is kinematically inaccessible in argon.
