Spin-independent scattering of pseudoscalar-mediated dark matter

Nicole F. Bell, Giorgio Busoni, Peter Cox +6

Dark matter with pseudoscalar couplings provides a well-motivated scenario in which direct-detection signals are suppressed at tree level, since the scattering off nuclei is both s…

Exothermic and Endothermic Inelastic Dark Matter Interpretations at LZ: Sideband Constraints and Future Prospects

James B. Dent, Jayden L. Newstead

The LZ experiment has extended its nuclear-recoil search to 270 keV and reports a single nuclear-recoil-like event, LZ230616, at keV, in a region with negligible expected…

Dark matter energy exchange in stars orbiting supermassive black holes

Stephan A. Meighen-Berger, R. Andrew Gustafson, Nicole F. Bell +3

Stars on tight orbits around the supermassive black hole at the Galactic Center pass through regions where the dark matter~(DM) density may be strongly enhanced. We compute the orb…

Exploring Low Energy Excess in MINER with sapphire detectors using Convolutional Variational Autoencoder (CVAE)

D. Mondal, W. Baker, M. Chaudhuri +19

As cryogenic detectors push toward ever-lower energy thresholds, their sensitivity is increasingly constrained by a persistent low-energy background known as the low-energy excess…

Discriminating Dark Matter Origins with Directional Detection

Nicole F. Bell, Chiara Lisotti, Jayden L. Newstead +2

Scenarios where dark matter is boosted to relativistic velocities provide a promising probe of sub-GeV dark matter. Cosmic-ray upscattered and supernova-produced dark matter genera…

Directional recoil detection for CEvNS measurements with light nuclei at the Spallation Neutron Source

Ciaran A. J. O'Hare, Anirudh Chandra Shekar, Chiara Lisotti +5

The coherent elastic scattering of neutrinos on nuclei, also known as CEvNS, has been studied for several years by the COHERENT program of experiments using neutrinos from stopped-…
