Cosmic Ray Boosted Dark Matter in COSINUS: Modeling and Constraints
G. Angloher, M. R. Bharadwaj, A. Böhmer +41
Direct detection of nuclear recoils due to sub-GeV dark matter is challenging because of the small kinetic energy of the light dark matter particles. Although limits down to a few…
Defect Formation in NaI Crystals: A Novel Pathway to Dark Matter Detection
G. Angloher, M. R. Bharadwaj, A. Böhmer +44
Sodium iodide (NaI) is a widely used scintillator in direct dark matter searches. In particular, NaI-based cryogenic scintillating calorimeters have emerged as promising candidates…
Excitonic contributions to dark matter-electron scattering
Nora Taufertshöfer, Vanessa Zema, Riccardo Catena +2
We determine whether excitonic effects affect predictions of dark matter (DM)-electron scattering rates by calculating the energy- and momentum-dependent energy-loss function, incl…
COSINUS model-independent sensitivity to the DAMA/LIBRA dark matter signal
G. Angloher, M. R. Bharadwaj, A. Böhmer +40
COSINUS is a dark matter direct detection experiment using NaI crystals as cryogenic scintillating calorimeters. If no signal is observed, this will constrain the dark matter scatt…
Dark Matter-Electron Scattering Search Using Cryogenic Light Detectors
V. Zema, P. Figueroa, G. Angloher +8
The CSC (cryogenic scintillating calorimeter) technology devoted to rare event searches is reaching the sensitivity level required for the hunt of dark matter-electron scatterings.…
Prospects for Dark Matter signal discovery and model selection via timing information in a low-threshold experiment
Riccardo Catena, Vanessa Zema
In the recent years, many low-threshold dark matter (DM) direct detection experiments have reported the observation of unexplained excesses of events at low energies. Exemplary for…
Direct detection of fermionic and vector dark matter with polarised targets
Riccardo Catena, Kåre Fridell, Vanessa Zema
We study the scattering of Milky Way dark matter (DM) particles by spin-polarised target nuclei within a set of simplified models for fermionic and vector DM where DM interacts wit…
Limits on Dark Matter Effective Field Theory Parameters with CRESST-II
G. Angloher, P. Bauer, A. Bento +42
CRESST is a direct dark matter search experiment, aiming for an observation of nuclear recoils induced by the interaction of dark matter particles with cryogenic scintillating calc…
The formalism of neutrino oscillations: an introduction
Guido Fantini, Andrea Gallo Rosso, Francesco Vissani +1
The recent wide recognition of the existence of neutrino oscillations concludes the pioneer stage of these studies and poses the problem of how to communicate effectively the basic…
