First Nuclear Ultra-Heavy Dark Matter Search in Argon Time Projection Chambers with the DarkSide-50 Experiment
P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque, T. Alexander +125
We report the first search for nuclear ultra-heavy dark matter (UHDM) in a dual-phase liquid argon time projection chamber using the DarkSide-50 experiment. Unlike conventional wea…
Constraints on non-standard neutrino interactions from Borexino extended data-set
V. Antonelli, D. Basilico, G. Bellini +74
Neutrino non-standard interactions (NSI) constitute an active research field, as they are closely related to potential new physics associated with dark matter searches and exotic i…
Fermionic sub-GeV Dark Matter from evaporating Primordial Black Holes at DarkSide-50
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque +125
We present a search for boosted dark matter from Primordial Black Holes (PBH) evaporation using the DarkSide-50 ionization-signal-only dataset corresponding to the experiment's ($1…
Search for high energy 5.5 MeV solar axions with the complete Borexino dataset
Borexino Collaboration
A search for solar axions and axion-like particles produced in the reaction was performed using the complete dataset of the Borexino det…
Characterization of spurious-electron signals in the double-phase argon TPC of the DarkSide-50 experiment
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque +144
Spurious-electron signals in dual-phase noble-liquid time projection chambers have been observed in both xenon and argon Time Projection Chambers (TPCs). This paper presents the fi…
Search for dark matter annual modulation with DarkSide-50
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +142
Dark matter induced event rate in an Earth-based detector is predicted to show an annual modulation as a result of the Earth's orbital motion around the Sun. We searched for this m…
