Non-standard scaling laws of WIMP-nucleus interactions in WIMP direct detection
Sunghyun Kang, Stefano Scopel, Gaurav Tomar +1
Guided by the non-relativistic effective field theory of interactions between Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) of spin 1/2 and nuclei we study direct detection exclusio…
Effective models of WIMP Direct Detection in DAMA/LIBRA-phase2
Sunghyun Kang, Stefano Scopel, Gaurav Tomar +1
Since the DAMA/LIBRA collaboration released updated results from their search for the annual modulation signal expected from Dark Matter (DM) scattering in their NaI detectors, we…
Proton-philic spin-dependent inelastic Dark Matter (pSIDM) as a viable explanation of DAMA/LIBRA-phase2
Sunghyun Kang, Stefano Scopel, Gaurav Tomar +1
We show that the Weakly Interacting Massive Particle scenario of proton-philic spin-dependent inelastic Dark Matter (pSIDM) can still provide a viable explanation of the observed D…
On the sensitivity of present direct detection experiments to WIMP-quark and WIMP-gluon effective interactions: a systematic assessment and new model-independent approaches
Sunghyun Kang, Stefano Scopel, Gaurav Tomar +1
Assuming for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) a Maxwellian velocity distribution in the Galaxy we provide an assessment of the sensitivity of existing Dark Matter (DM)…
Anapole Dark Matter after DAMA/LIBRA-phase2
Sunghyun Kang, Stefano Scopel, Gaurav Tomar +2
We re-examine the case of anapole dark matter as an explanation for the DAMA annual modulation in light of the DAMA/LIBRA-phase2 results and improved upper limits from other DM sea…
Present and projected sensitivities of Dark Matter direct detection experiments to effective WIMP-nucleus couplings
Sunghyun Kang, Stefano Scopel, Gaurav Tomar +1
Assuming for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) a Maxwellian velocity distribution in the Galaxy we explore in a systematic way the relative sensitivity of an extensive s…
DAMA/LIBRA-phase2 in WIMP effective models
Sunghyun Kang, Stefano Scopel, Gaurav Tomar +1
The DAMA/LIBRA collaboration has recently released updated results from their search for the annual modulation signal expected from Dark Matter (DM) scattering in their NaI detecto…
Explaining DAMA with proton-philic spin-dependent inelastic Dark Matter (pSIDM): a frequentist analysis
Seong-Hyeong Kang, Stefano Scopel, Jong-Hyun Yoon
Proton-philic spin-dependent inelastic Dark Matter is a Weakly Inelastic Massive Particle scenario that can explain the DAMA yearly modulation effect in compliance with the constra…
