abstract

We report a search on a sub-MeV fermionic dark matter absorbed by electrons with an outgoing active neutrino using the 0.63 tonne-year exposure collected by PandaX-4T liquid xenon experiment. No significant signals are observed over the expected background. The data are interpreted into limits to the effective couplings between such dark matter and electrons. For axial-vector or vector interactions, our sensitivity is competitive in comparison to existing astrophysical bounds on the decay of such dark matter into photon final states. In particular, we present the first direct detection limits for an axial-vector (vector) interaction which are the strongest in the mass range from 25 to 45 (35 to 50) keV/c$^2$.

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Supernova cooling excludes fermionic dark matter produced by neutrino scattering down to cross sections of about 10^-58 cm^2 for electrons and 10^-56 cm^2 for nucleons across the keV to 100 MeV mass range.
