The DAMIC excess from WIMP-nucleus elastic scattering
A. E. Chavarria, H. Lin, K. J. McGuire +2
Two dark matter searches performed with charge-coupled devices (CCDs) in the DAMIC cryostat at SNOLAB reported with high statistical significance the presence of an unidentified so…
The low-energy spectrum in DAMIC at SNOLAB
Alvaro E. Chavarria
The DAMIC experiment employs large-area, thick charge-coupled devices (CCDs) to search for the interactions of low-mass dark matter particles in the galactic halo with silicon atom…
Even Lighter Particle Dark Matter
Alvaro E. Chavarria
We report on recent progress in the search for dark matter particles with masses from 1 MeV to 1 GeV. Several dark matter candidates in this mass range are expected to generate mea…
Results on Low-Mass Weakly Interacting Massive Particles from a 11 kg d Target Exposure of DAMIC at SNOLAB (ICRC2021 Proceedings)
Michelangelo Traina
Experimental efforts of the last decades have been unsuccessful in detecting WIMPs (Weakly Interacting Massive Particles) in the 10-to-10 GeV/ range, thus motivating the s…
Constraints on Light Dark Matter Particles Interacting with Electrons from DAMIC at SNOLAB
A. Aguilar-Arevalo, D. Amidei, D. Baxter +31
We report direct-detection constraints on light dark matter particles interacting with electrons. The results are based on a method that exploits the extremely low levels of leakag…
First Direct-Detection Constraints on eV-Scale Hidden-Photon Dark Matter with DAMIC at SNOLAB
A. Aguilar-Arevalo, D. Amidei, X. Bertou +35
We present direct detection constraints on the absorption of hidden-photon dark matter with particle masses in the range 1.2-30 eV with the DAMIC experiment at SNOLAB. Unde…
