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…
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.…
