Observing the Migdal effect from nuclear recoils of neutral particles with liquid xenon and argon detectors

Nicole F. Bell, James B. Dent, Rafael F. Lang +2

In recent years, dark matter direct detection experiments have spurred interest in the Migdal effect, where it is employed to extend their sensitivity to lower dark matter masses.…

Cosmic-ray upscattered inelastic dark matter

Nicole F. Bell, James B. Dent, Bhaskar Dutta +4

Light non-relativistic components of the galactic dark matter halo elude direct detection constraints because they lack the kinetic energy to create an observable recoil. However,…

Pathfinder for a High Statistics Search for Missing Energy In Gamma Cascades

James B. Dent, Bhaskar Dutta, Andrew Jastram +7

We investigate the feasibility of a high statistics experiment to search for invisible decay modes in nuclear gamma cascades using 200 kg of %36 Cs(Tl) scintillators that are prese…

Solar Gamma Ray Constraints on Dark Matter Annihilation to Secluded Mediators

Nicole F. Bell, James B. Dent, Isaac W. Sanderson

We consider the indirect detection of dark matter that is captured in the Sun and subsequently annihilates to long-lived dark mediators. If these mediators escape the Sun before de…

Low-mass inelastic dark matter direct detection via the Migdal effect

Nicole F. Bell, James B. Dent, Bhaskar Dutta +3

We consider searches for the inelastic scattering of low-mass dark matter at direct detection experiments, using the Migdal effect. We find that there are degeneracies between the…
