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…
Daily Modulation Constraints on Light Dark Matter with DAMIC-M
K. Aggarwal, I. Arnquist, N. Avalos +40
The flux of Hidden Sector particles from the Galactic halo reaching an underground detector can be significantly attenuated by interactions within the Earth for sufficiently large…
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…
The DAMIC-M Low Background Chamber
I. Arnquist, N. Avalos, P. Bailly +66
The DArk Matter In CCDs at Modane (DAMIC-M) experiment is designed to search for light dark matter (m<10\,GeV/c) at the Laboratoire Souterrain de Modane (LSM) in France. D…
Nuclear Recoil Identification in a Scientific Charge-Coupled Device
K. J. McGuire, A. E. Chavarria, N. Castello-Mor +19
Charge-coupled devices (CCDs) are a leading technology in direct dark matter searches because of their eV-scale energy threshold and high spatial resolution. The sensitivity of fut…
