Directionality of nuclear recoils in a liquid argon time projection chamber

20k Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. Ahmad +264

The direct search for dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMP) is performed by detecting nuclear recoils (NR) produced in a target material from the W…

DarkSide-20k sensitivity to light dark matter particles

20k Collaboration, F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari +310

The dual-phase liquid argon time projection chamber is presently one of the leading technologies to search for dark matter particles with masses below 10 GeV/c. This was demons…

Sensitivity projections for a dual-phase argon TPC optimized for light dark matter searches through the ionization channel

P. Agnes, I. Ahmad, S. Albergo +296

Dark matter lighter than 10 GeV/c encompasses a promising range of candidates. A conceptual design for a new detector, DarkSide-LowMass, is presented, based on the DarkSide-50…
