Rejecting the Majorana nature of dark matter with electron scattering experiments

Riccardo Catena, Timon Emken, Julia Ravanis

Assuming that Dark Matter (DM) is made of fermions in the sub-GeV mass range with interactions dominated by electromagnetic moments of higher order, such as the electric and magnet…

Atomic responses to general dark matter-electron interactions

Riccardo Catena, Timon Emken, Nicola A. Spaldin +1

In the leading paradigm of modern cosmology, about 80% of our Universe's matter content is in the form of hypothetical, as yet undetected particles. These do not emit or absorb rad…

Dark Matter in the Earth and the Sun -- Simulating Underground Scatterings for the Direct Detection of Low-Mass Dark Matter

Timon Emken

If DM-matter scatterings are assumed to occur in a detector's target material, collisions will naturally take place inside the bulk of planets and stars as well. For large cross se…

Direct Detection of Strongly Interacting Sub-GeV Dark Matter via Electron Recoils

Timon Emken, Rouven Essig, Chris Kouvaris +1

We consider direct-detection searches for sub-GeV dark matter via electron scatterings in the presence of large interactions between dark and ordinary matter. Scatterings both on e…

DaMaSCUS: The Impact of Underground Scatterings on Direct Detection of Light Dark Matter

Timon Emken, Chris Kouvaris

Conventional dark matter direct detection experiments set stringent constraints on dark matter by looking for elastic scattering events between dark matter particles and nuclei in…
