WimPyC: an extension module of WimPyDD for the calculation of WIMP capture in celestial bodies
Sunghyun Kang, Stefano Scopel, Gaurav Tomar
We introduce WimPyC, a Python code for the calculation of the capture rate of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) by celestial bodies through nuclear scattering in the opt…

Sensitivity of WIMP bounds on the velocity distribution in the limit of a massless mediator
Koun Choi, Injun Jeong, Sunghyun Kang +2
We discuss the sensitivity of the bounds on the spin-independent (SI) and spin-dependent (SD) WIMP-proton and WIMP-neutron interaction couplings on the WIMP vel…

Low-mass constraints on WIMP effective models of inelastic scattering using the Migdal effect
Sunghyun Kang, Stefano Scopel, Gaurav Tomar
We use the Migdal effect to extend to low masses the bounds on each of the effective couplings of the non-relativistic effective field theory of a WIMP of mass and spin 1/2…
