Constraints on Sub-MeV Dark Matter from Solar Reflection with DAMIC-M
K. Aggarwal, I. Arnquist, N. Avalos +41
The Sun acts as a natural dark matter accelerator. Galactic halo particles scattering in the solar plasma emerge with velocities well beyond the Galactic escape speed, providing a…
Gamma Backgrounds for Experiments at the High Flux Isotope Reactor
M. Andriamirado, A. B. Balantekin, C. Baldenegro +53
This article describes the deployment of a germanium detector at Oak Ridge National Lab's High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) for the purpose of understanding the energy and spatial d…
Probing Long-Lived Particle Production in Muon Decays at the SNS with a Highly Capable Hydrocarbon Detector
M. Andriamirado, A. B. Balantekin, C. D. Bass +43
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is a prolific muon producer, making it an ideal location for studying dark sector particles produced in…
First Production of Skipper-CCD Modules for the DAMIC-M Experiment
H. Lin, M. Traina, S. Paul +65
The DAMIC-M experiment will search for sub-GeV dark matter particles with a large array of silicon skipper charge-coupled devices (CCDs) at the Modane Underground Laboratory (LSM)…
Probing Benchmark Models of Hidden-Sector Dark Matter with DAMIC-M
M Collaboration, K. Aggarwal, I. Arnquist +39
We report on a search for sub-GeV dark matter (DM) particles interacting with electrons using the DAMIC-M prototype detector at the Modane Underground Laboratory. The data feature…
