Earth-Scattering Induced Modulation in Low-Threshold Dark Matter Experiments
Xavier Bertou, Ansh Desai, Timon Emken +3
Dark matter particles with sufficiently large interactions with ordinary matter can scatter in the Earth before reaching and scattering in a detector. This induces a modulation in…

Resonant or asymmetric: The status of sub-GeV dark matter
Sowmiya Balan, Csaba Balázs, Torsten Bringmann +9
Sub-GeV dark matter (DM) particles produced via thermal freeze-out evade many of the strong constraints on heavier DM candidates but at the same time face a multitude of new constr…

SENSEI: First Direct-Detection Results on sub-GeV Dark Matter from SENSEI at SNOLAB
SENSEI Collaboration, Prakruth Adari, Itay M. Bloch +34
We present the first results from a dark matter search using six Skipper-CCDs in the SENSEI detector operating at SNOLAB. We employ a bias-mitigation technique of hiding approximat…
