Sensitivity of accelerator-based neutrino experiments to neutrino-dark matter interaction: Elko as a viable dark matter candidate
arXiv:2109.03881 · doi:10.1209/0295-5075/ac969e
Abstract
We analyze the potential of accelerator-based neutrino experiments, such as the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, to constrain a five dimensional operator mediating a beyond standard model interaction between mass dimension one fermion fields, labeled elko, and neutrino. We identify the parameter space where elko is a viable dark matter candidate.
