Dark matter searches with a 13 meV threshold superconducting sensor array

Christopher Albert, Lanqing Yuan, Jacob Harris +13

Many well-motivated dark matter models predict meV-scale energy deposits in interactions with terrestrial experiments, but this regime is challenging to probe due to a lack of matu…

Towards LLM-Powered Automation of a Dark Matter Constraint Repository

Lanqing Yuan, Karthik Ramanathan

Dark matter constraint repositories are critical community infrastructure, yet the most widely-used are volunteer-maintained, a sustainability risk as results accelerate. Limits ar…
