Sensitivity to low-mass WIMPs with an improved liquid argon ionization response model within the DarkSide programme
F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari, P. Agnes +294
Dark matter detection experiments using liquid argon rely on a precise characterization of the ionization response to nuclear recoils, especially in the keV energy range relevant f…
Standard Model Tested with Neutrinos
Mattia Atzori Corona, Matteo Cadeddu, Nicola Cargioli +3
The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics effectively explains most observed phenomena, though some anomalies, especially in the neutrino sector, suggest the need for extensions.…
A short blanket for cosmology: the CMB lensing anomaly behind the preference for a negative neutrino mass
Andrea Cozzumbo, Mattia Atzori Corona, Riccardo Murgia +2
Recent analyses combining cosmic microwave background (CMB) and baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) challenge particle physics constraints on the total neutrino mass, pointing to val…
Characterization of the ionization response of argon to nuclear recoils at the keV scale with the ReD experiment
P. Agnes, I. Ahmad, S. Albergo +42
In the recent years, argon-based experiments looking for Dark Matter in the Universe have explored the non-standard scenario in which Dark Matter is made by low-mass Weakly Interac…
Joint analysis of reactor and accelerator CENS data on germanium: implications for the Standard Model and nuclear physics
M. Atzori Corona, M. Cadeddu, N. Cargioli +3
This work presents the first comprehensive joint analysis of all available Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CENS) data on germanium: those observed at the Spallati…
Reactor antineutrinos CENS on germanium: CONUS+ and TEXONO as a new gateway to SM and BSM physics
M. Atzori Corona, M. Cadeddu, N. Cargioli +2
Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENS) is a key process for probing Standard Model and beyond the Standard Model (BSM) properties. Following its first detection by…
