Assuming that charged massive particles have a Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution, truncated at the Galactic escape velocity, and that CMPs comprise the Galactic dark matter, it is possible to rule out CMPs with masses between 350 and 86,000 TeV/c squared in the solar neighborhood. Also ruled out are masses of neutral CMP-proton composites between 100 and 40,000 TeV/c squared, provided that they charge exchange with C or O nuclei with a cross section having a value in the interval from 30 mb to 30 b.
