Reconstructing Dark Matter Mass and Discriminating Standard and Non-Standard WIMP-Nucleus Interactions with Paleo-Detectors
Dionysios P. Theodosopoulos, Katherine Freese, Chris Kelso +1
Paleo-detectors record and retain crystal damage in ancient minerals from nuclear recoils induced by dark matter scattering over geological timescales. Previous studies have shown…
Projected Sensitivity of Paleo-Detectors to Dark Matter Effective Interactions with Nuclei
Dionysios P. Theodosopoulos, Katherine Freese, Chris Kelso +1
Paleo-detectors are a proposed experimental technique for direct detection (DD) of dark matter (DM) via the read-out of DM-induced nuclear recoil tracks in natural minerals. The la…

Shigenobu Hirose, Patrick Stengel, Natsue Abe +70
The third ``Mineral Detection of Neutrinos and Dark Matter'' (MDDM'25) meeting was held May 20-23, 2025 in Yokohama, Japan, hosted by the Yokohama Institute for Earth Sciences,…
Measures of luminous and dark matter in galaxies across time
Jonathan Freundlich, Gauri Sharma, Sabine Thater +14
Dark matter is one of the pillars of the current standard model of structure formation: it is assumed to constitute most of the matter in the Universe. However, it can so far only…
