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…

Direct detection of electromagnetically interacting ultraheavy dark matter
Jason Kumar, Biprajit Mondal, Girish Muralidhara +1
At a level too faint for astronomy, particle dark matter may interact with Standard Model states via the photon. We derive limits from direct detection experiments on photon-mediat…
