We present the full basis of effective operators relevant for dark matter direct detection, up to and including operators of mass dimension seven. We treat the cases where dark matter is either a Dirac fermion, a Majorana fermion, a complex scalar, or a real scalar, allowing for dark matter to furnish a general representation of the electroweak gauge group. We describe the algorithmic procedure used to obtain the minimal set of effective operators and provide the tree-level matching conditions onto the effective theory valid below the electroweak scale.

  1. DAMA/LIBRA and dark matter: decisive tension or contrived cancellation

    hep-ph 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    DAMA's annual modulation signal is incompatible at >5σ with ANAIS-112 and COSINE-100 under physical dark-matter recoil models; reconciliation requires contrived opposite-sign sodium/iodine tuning.

  2. Systematic Spurion Matching between Low Energy EFT and Chiral Lagrangian

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A single SU(3)_V spurion can organize both LEFT and chiral Lagrangian operators up to dimension 9, enabling systematic operator-level matching between quark and hadron levels.

  3. Information-theoretic astrophysical uncertainties in the effective theory of dark matter direct detection

    hep-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Using an information-theoretic bound on the halo velocity distribution, dark matter direct-detection limits vary from <10x to ~10,000x near threshold depending on the EFT operator, with higher velocity-weighting opera...

  4. Semi-visible higgs decay as a probe for new invisible particles

    hep-ph 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    At the HL-LHC, semi-visible Higgs decays can probe dark-SMEFT couplings to invisible scalars or fermions below 50 GeV, with the best reach for Yukawa-type operators, while invisible Z decays and unitarity constrain de...

  5. Constraining Effective Field Theories for dark matter candidates annihilating into gamma-ray lines with CTAO

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Using CTAO projected line sensitivity, the paper forecasts lower bounds on effective dark matter interaction scales above 10 TeV for TeV mass dark matter, with direct detection dominating the fermionic dipole operator.

  6. Laser induced Compton Scattering to Dark Matter in Effective Field Theory

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Electrons struck by an intense laser can decay into a light dark matter pair; at LUXE this could probe EFT cutoffs near 1 GeV for dimension-6 operators and 10^3-10^4 GeV for dipole operators with dark matter below 1 MeV.
