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…

Search for Daily Modulation of MeV Dark Matter Signals with DAMIC-M

I. Arnquist, N. Avalos, D. Baxter +37

Dark Matter (DM) particles with sufficiently large cross sections may scatter as they travel through Earth's bulk. The corresponding changes in the DM flux give rise to a character…

Confirmation of the spectral excess in DAMIC at SNOLAB with skipper CCDs

A. Aguilar-Arevalo, I. Arnquist, N. Avalos +69

We present results from a 3.25 kg-day target exposure of two silicon charge-coupled devices (CCDs), each with 24 megapixels and skipper readout, deployed in the DAMIC setup at SNOL…
