The Earth-stopping effect plays a crucial role in the direct detection of sub-GeV dark matter. Besides the elastic scattering process, the quasi-elastic and deep inelastic scatterings between dark matter and nucleus that are usually neglected can dominate the interaction, especially in the accelerated dark matter scenarios, which may affect the dark matter detection sensitivity significantly for the underground experiments. We calculate such inelastic scattering contributions in the Earth-stopping effect and illustrate the essence of our argument with the atmospheric dark matter. With the available data, we find that the resulting upper limits on the atmospheric dark matter-nucleus scattering cross-section can differ from those only considering the elastic scattering process by one order of magnitude.

Probing Supernova Neutrino Boosted Dark Matter with Collective Excitation
Galactic supernova neutrino boosted dark matter can produce plasmon excitations in silicon detectors, improving sub-MeV dark matter sensitivity by 3 to 4 orders of magnitude over Super-K.

Inelastic Scattering Effects on Attenuation of Boosted Dark Matter
Resonant excitation of nucleons into Δ(1232) during Earth passage is a non-negligible attenuation channel for boosted dark matter at E_χ ≈ 1–2 GeV, lowering the PandaX-4T upper bound on σ̄_n in the heavy-mediator regime.

Direct Detection of Leptophobic Dark Matter with Electronic Collective Excitations
Leptophobic dark matter can excite plasmons in silicon through hadronic loops, and SENSEI data now constrain its nucleon cross section down to ~1e-31 cm^2 in the sub-MeV mass range.

Probing Light Dark Particles in Neutrino Scattering Experiments
A dark fermion produced in neutrino scattering could be probed at DUNE's near detector up to cutoff scales near 1 TeV, beyond CHARM II and LEP, while current COHERENT/CONUS+ limits stay below LHC bounds.

Halo-dependent Anharmonic Effects in Collective Excitation for Light Dark Matter Direct Detection
Expected sensitivity of phonon-based light dark matter detectors varies by a factor of 2-3 depending on which Gaia-inspired dark matter substructure is assumed, because anharmonic crystal effects depend on the dark ma...
