Earth-Scattering Induced Modulation in Low-Threshold Dark Matter Experiments

Xavier Bertou, Ansh Desai, Timon Emken +3

Dark matter particles with sufficiently large interactions with ordinary matter can scatter in the Earth before reaching and scattering in a detector. This induces a modulation in…

SENSEI: First Direct-Detection Results on sub-GeV Dark Matter from SENSEI at SNOLAB

SENSEI Collaboration, Prakruth Adari, Itay M. Bloch +34

We present the first results from a dark matter search using six Skipper-CCDs in the SENSEI detector operating at SNOLAB. We employ a bias-mitigation technique of hiding approximat…

Low-Energy Radiative Backgrounds in CCD-Based Dark-Matter Detectors

Peizhi Du, Daniel Egaña-Ugrinovic, Rouven Essig +1

The reach of sub-GeV dark-matter detectors is at present severely affected by low-energy events from various origins. We present the theoretical methods to compute the single- and…

Low-Energy Compton Scattering in Materials

Rouven Essig, Yonit Hochberg, Yutaro Shoji +2

Low-energy Compton scattering is an important background for sub-GeV dark matter direct-detection and other experiments. Current Compton scattering calculations typically rely on a…

Dual-sided Charge-Coupled Devices

Javier Tiffenberg, Daniel Egaña-Ugrinovic, Miguel Sofo Haro +4

Existing Charge-Coupled Devices (CCDs) operate by detecting either the electrons or holes created in an ionization event. We propose a new type of imager, the Dual-Sided CCD, which…

Fully ab-initio all-electron calculation of dark matter--electron scattering in crystals with evaluation of systematic uncertainties

Cyrus E. Dreyer, Rouven Essig, Marivi Fernandez-Serra +2

We calculate target-material responses for dark matter--electron scattering at the \textit{ab-initio} all-electron level using atom-centered gaussian basis sets. The all-electron e…
