Testing the Inverted Neutrino Mass Ordering with Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay
Matteo Agostini, Giovanni Benato, Jason A. Detwiler +2
We quantify the extent to which future experiments will test the existence of neutrinoless double-beta decay mediated by light neutrinos with inverted-ordered masses. While it rema…
Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering: EFT analysis and nuclear responses
Martin Hoferichter, Javier Menéndez, Achim Schwenk
The cross section for coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENS) depends on the response of the target nucleus to the external current, in the Standard Model (SM) media…
Dark-matter-nucleus scattering in chiral effective field theory
Martin Hoferichter, Philipp Klos, Javier Menéndez +1
Chiral effective field theory allows one to calculate the response of few-nucleon systems to external currents, both for currents that can be probed in the Standard Model and ones…
Nuclear structure factors for general spin-independent WIMP-nucleus scattering
Martin Hoferichter, Philipp Klos, Javier Menéndez +1
We present nuclear structure factors that describe the generalized spin-independent coupling of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) to nuclei. Our results are based on sta…
What do we know about neutrinoless double-beta decay nuclear matrix elements?
J. Menéndez
The detection of neutrinoless double-beta decay will establish the Majorana nature of neutrinos. In addition, if the nuclear matrix elements of this process are reliably known, the…
Analysis strategies for general spin-independent WIMP-nucleus scattering
Martin Hoferichter, Philipp Klos, Javier Menéndez +1
We propose a formalism for the analysis of direct-detection dark-matter searches that covers all coherent responses for scalar and vector interactions and incorporates QCD constrai…
