I've got the books.
In my spare time in the coming weeks I'll scratch together a list from
Physics Today, Rev Mod Physics and this list.
Thanks

recent Rev Mod Phys - stuff on e-print archive.
No one but me understands nature of dark matter as yet.
If the recent CDMSII data holds up, showing false positives in the
Italian data, that is a triumph for my idea that DM is w = -1 ZPF with
positive pressure and that dark energy is the same but with negative
pressure and that together they are 96% of large-scale stuff of
universe. This number can change as scale decreases. We have a "CWT
power spectrum" instead of usual FT power spectrum.
The WMAP, Type 1a data is only for scales > 10^2 megaparsecs.
So lots of
speculative papers grasping at straws.
Start with my two books from 2002 on Amazon.
