The ionization yield in a methane-filled spherical proportional counter

M. M. Arora, L. Balogh, C. Beaufort +40

Spherical proportional counters (SPCs) are gaseous particle detectors sensitive to single ionization electrons in their target media, with large detector volumes and low background…

Snowmass2021 Cosmic Frontier: The landscape of low-threshold dark matter direct detection in the next decade

Rouven Essig, Graham K. Giovanetti, Noah Kurinsky +90

The search for particle-like dark matter with meV-to-GeV masses has developed rapidly in the past few years. We summarize the science case for these searches, the recent progress,…
