Seasonal dark matter from the LUX-ZEPLIN high-energy event

Christopher McCabe

The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment has reported a single nuclear recoil at $248\pm23({\rm stat})\pm23({\rm sys})\keV$ in an extended search window. Inelastic dark matter, in which the scatt…

From RATs to riches: mitigating anthropogenic and synanthropic noise in atom interferometer searches for ultra-light dark matter

John Carlton, Christopher McCabe

Atom interferometers offer promising new avenues for detecting ultra-light dark matter (ULDM). The exceptional sensitivity of atom interferometers to fluctuations in the local grav…

Super-Nyquist ultralight dark matter searches with broadband atom gradiometers

Leonardo Badurina, Ankit Beniwal, Christopher McCabe

Atom gradiometers have emerged as compelling broadband probes of scalar ultralight dark matter (ULDM) candidates that oscillate with frequencies between approximately Hz…

Ultralight dark matter searches at the sub-Hz frontier with atom multigradiometry

Leonardo Badurina, Valerie Gibson, Christopher McCabe +1

Single-photon atom gradiometry is a powerful experimental technique that can be employed to search for the oscillation of atomic transition energies induced by ultralight scalar da…

Precise predictions and new insights for atomic ionisation from the Migdal effect

Peter Cox, Matthew J. Dolan, Christopher McCabe +1

The scattering of neutral particles by an atomic nucleus can lead to electronic ionisation and excitation through a process known as the Migdal effect. We revisit and improve upon…
