Multiphonon excitations from dark matter scattering in crystals
Brian Campbell-Deem, Peter Cox, Simon Knapen +2
For direct detection of sub-MeV dark matter, a promising strategy is to search for individual phonon excitations in a crystal. We perform an analytic calculation of the rate for li…

The Dark Matter Phonon Coupling
Peter Cox, Tom Melia, Surjeet Rajendran
Generically, the effective coupling between the dark matter and an atom scales with the number of constituents in the atom, resulting in the effective coupling being proportional t…

Constructing effective field theories via their harmonics
Brian Henning, Tom Melia
We consider the construction of operator bases for massless, relativistic quantum field theories, and show this is equivalent to obtaining the harmonic modes of a physical manifold…
