abstract

We report on WIMP search results in the XENON100 detector using a non-relativistic effective field theory approach. The data from science run II (34 kg $\times$ 224.6 live days) was re-analyzed, with an increased recoil energy interval compared to previous analyses, ranging from $(6.6 - 240)~\mathrm{keV_\mathrm{nr}}$. The data is found to be compatible with the background-only hypothesis. We present 90% confidence level exclusion limits on the coupling constants of WIMP-nucleon effective operators using a binned profile likelihood method. We also consider the case of inelastic WIMP scattering, where incident WIMPs may up-scatter to a higher mass state, and set exclusion limits on this model as well.

  1. Reconstructing Dark Matter Mass and Discriminating Standard and Non-Standard WIMP-Nucleus Interactions with Paleo-Detectors

    astro-ph.CO 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Paleo-detectors are projected to reconstruct WIMP masses from 1 GeV/c² to 1 TeV/c² and to reject canonical spin-independent or spin-dependent interaction hypotheses for most non-standard NREFT operators without recoil...

  2. Relaxed constraints for dark matter with axial coupling to a dark photon

    hep-ph 2025-10 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Axial coupling of Dirac dark matter to a kinetically-mixed dark photon suppresses the standard direct-detection signal and opens large allowed regions in the WIMP parameter space.
