No sub-solar-mass compact-binary mergers were found in LIGO O4a data, giving 90% merger-rate upper limits of 110-10000 Gpc^-3 yr^-1 and weak new dark-matter constraints.

Searches for Binary Mergers with Sub-solar Mass Components in Data from the First Part of LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA's Fourth Observing Run
No sub-solar-mass compact-binary mergers were found in LIGO O4a data, giving 90% merger-rate upper limits of 110-10000 Gpc^-3 yr^-1 and weak new dark-matter constraints.
