Dark Matter Detection With Bound Nuclear Targets: The Poisson Phonon Tail
Yonatan Kahn, Gordan Krnjaic, Bashi Mandava
Dark matter (DM) scattering with nuclei in solid-state systems may produce elastic nuclear recoil at high energies and single-phonon excitation at low energies. When the dark matte…
Characterizing Dark Matter Signals with Missing Momentum Experiments
Nikita Blinov, Gordan Krnjaic, Douglas Tuckler
Fixed target missing-momentum experiments such as LDMX and M are powerful probes of light dark matter and other light, weakly coupled particles beyond the Standard Model (SM).…
GUT Baryogenesis With Primordial Black Holes
Dan Hooper, Gordan Krnjaic
In models of baryogenesis based on Grand Unified Theories (GUTs), the baryon asymmetry of the universe is generated through the CP and baryon number violating, out-of-equilibrium d…
Mechanical Quantum Sensing in the Search for Dark Matter
Daniel Carney, Gordan Krnjaic, David C. Moore +32
Numerous astrophysical and cosmological observations are best explained by the existence of dark matter, a mass density which interacts only very weakly with visible, baryonic matt…
An experimental program with high duty-cycle polarized and unpolarized positron beams at Jefferson Lab
A. Accardi, A. Afanasev, I. Albayrak +227
Positron beams, both polarized and unpolarized, are identified as essential ingredients for the experimental programs at the next generation of lepton accelerators. In the context…
Search for composite dark matter with optically levitated sensors
Fernando Monteiro, Gadi Afek, Daniel Carney +3
Results are reported from a search for a class of composite dark matter models with feeble, long-range interactions with normal matter. We search for impulses arising from passing…
A Guaranteed Discovery at Future Muon Colliders
Rodolfo Capdevilla, David Curtin, Yonatan Kahn +1
The longstanding muon g-2 anomaly may indicate the existence of new particles that couple to muons, which could either be light (< GeV) and weakly coupled, or heavy (>> 100 GeV) wi…
The First Three Seconds: a Review of Possible Expansion Histories of the Early Universe
Rouzbeh Allahverdi, Mustafa A. Amin, Asher Berlin +23
It is commonly assumed that the energy density of the Universe was dominated by radiation between reheating after inflation and the onset of matter domination 54,000 years later. W…
Dark Radiation from Inflationary Fluctuations
Gordan Krnjaic
Light new vector bosons can be produced gravitationally through quantum fluctuations during inflation; if these particles are feebly coupled and cosmologically metastable, they can…
Hot Gravitons and Gravitational Waves From Kerr Black Holes in the Early Universe
Dan Hooper, Gordan Krnjaic, John March-Russell +2
Any abundance of black holes that was present in the early universe will evolve as matter, making up an increasingly large fraction of the total energy density as space expands. Th…
A Dark Matter Interpretation of Excesses in Multiple Direct Detection Experiments
Noah Kurinsky, Daniel Baxter, Yonatan Kahn +1
We present a novel unifying interpretation of excess event rates observed in several dark matter direct-detection experiments that utilize single-electron threshold semiconductor d…
Reply to Robinson and Michaud, arXiv:2002.08893
Noah Kurinsky, Daniel Baxter, Yonatan Kahn +2
We respond to Robinson and Michaud's (RM) comment (arXiv:2002.08893) on our recent preprint arXiv:2002.06937, in which we discuss recent excesses in low-threshold dark matter searc…
