Snowmass2021 Cosmic Frontier White Paper: Calibrations and backgrounds for dark matter direct detection
Daniel Baxter, Raymond Bunker, Sally Shaw +48
Future dark matter direct detection experiments will reach unprecedented levels of sensitivity. Achieving this sensitivity will require more precise models of signal and background…
Probing Majorana neutrinos with double- decay
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, A. M. Bakalyarov +111
A discovery that neutrinos are not the usual Dirac but Majorana fermions, i.e. identical to their antiparticles, would be a manifestation of new physics with profound implications…
Search for Light Dark Matter Interactions Enhanced by the Migdal effect or Bremsstrahlung in XENON1T
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, F. Agostini +131
Direct dark matter detection experiments based on a liquid xenon target are leading the search for dark matter particles with masses above 5 GeV/c, but have limited sens…
Light Dark Matter Search with Ionization Signals in XENON1T
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, F. Agostini +130
We report constraints on light dark matter (DM) models using ionization signals in the XENON1T experiment. We mitigate backgrounds with strong event selections, rather than requiri…
Search for WIMP Inelastic Scattering off Xenon Nuclei with XENON100
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, F. Agostini +113
We present the first constraints on the spin-dependent, inelastic scattering cross section of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) on nucleons from XENON100 data with an ex…
Likelihood Approach to the First Dark Matter Results from XENON100
XENON100 Collaboration, E. Aprile, K. Arisaka +43
Many experiments that aim at the direct detection of Dark Matter are able to distinguish a dominant background from the expected feeble signals, based on some measured discriminati…
