Relativistic mean-field corrections for interactions of dark matter particles with nucleons
arXiv:2012.10144 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.103.034606
Abstract
We investigate the interactions of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPS) with nucleons in nuclear medium by taking into account the effect of nuclear dynamics. We derive the nonrelativistic effective operators starting from the relativistic mean-field approximation. Certain interactions receive non-negligible corrections, which may significantly change the sensitivities of WIMP-nucleus scattering cross section to these effective operators.
