Direct detection of electromagnetically interacting ultraheavy dark matter
Jason Kumar, Biprajit Mondal, Girish Muralidhara +1
At a level too faint for astronomy, particle dark matter may interact with Standard Model states via the photon. We derive limits from direct detection experiments on photon-mediat…

The neutrino roof: Single-scatter ceilings in dark matter direct detection
Nirmal Raj, Biprajit Mondal
We identify the maximum cross sections probed by single-scatter ``WIMP" searches in dark matter direct detection. Due to Poisson fluctuations in scatter multiplicity, these ceiling…
