Exclusion of Leptophilic Dark Matter Models using XENON100 Electronic Recoil Data

The XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, F. Agostini +98

Laboratory experiments searching for galactic dark matter particles scattering off nuclei have so far not been able to establish a discovery. We use data from the XENON100 experime…
