Revisiting Supernova 1987A Constraints on Dark Photons
Jae Hyeok Chang, Rouven Essig, Samuel D. McDermott
We revisit constraints on dark photons with masses below ~ 100 MeV from the observations of Supernova 1987A. If dark photons are produced in sufficient quantity, they reduce the am…
Dark Sectors 2016 Workshop: Community Report
Jim Alexander, Marco Battaglieri, Bertrand Echenard +201
This report, based on the Dark Sectors workshop at SLAC in April 2016, summarizes the scientific importance of searches for dark sector dark matter and forces at masses beneath the…
Detection of sub-GeV Dark Matter and Solar Neutrinos via Chemical-Bond Breaking
Rouven Essig, Jeremy Mardon, Oren Slone +1
We explore a new low-threshold direct-detection concept for dark matter, based on the breaking of chemical bonds between atoms. This includes the dissociation of molecules and the…
Searching for Dark Absorption with Direct Detection Experiments
Itay M. Bloch, Rouven Essig, Kohsaku Tobioka +2
We consider the absorption by bound electrons of dark matter in the form of dark photons and axion-like particles, as well as of dark photons from the Sun, in current and next-gene…
Direct Detection of sub-GeV Dark Matter with Scintillating Targets
Stephen Derenzo, Rouven Essig, Andrea Massari +2
We describe a novel search for MeV-to-GeV-mass dark matter, in which the dark matter scatters off electrons in a scintillating target. The excitation and subsequent de-excitation o…
Physics at a 100 TeV pp collider: beyond the Standard Model phenomena
T. Golling, M. Hance, P. Harris +111
This report summarises the physics opportunities in the search and study of physics beyond the Standard Model at a 100 TeV pp collider.
