Predicting signals in experiments to directly detect dark matter (DM) requires a form for the
local DM velocity distribution. Hitherto, the standard halo model (SHM), in which velocities …

As part of the Snowmass process, the Cosmic Frontier WIMP Direct Detection subgroup
(CF1) has drawn on input from the Cosmic Frontier and the broader Particle Physics …

Data from the Gaia satellite show that the solar neighborhood of the Milky Way's stellar halo
is imprinted with substructure from several accretion events. Evidence of these events is …

The recently discovered S1 stream passes through the Solar neighborhood on a low
inclination, counterrotating orbit. The progenitor of S1 is a dwarf galaxy with a total mass …

The search for a novel technology able to detect and reconstruct nuclear and electron recoil
events with the energy of a few keV has become more and more important now that large …

(CF1) has drawn on input from the Cosmic Frontier and the broader Particle Physics …

The search for weakly-interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter is multi-pronged.
Ultimately, the WIMP-dark-matter picture will only be confirmed if different classes of …

We explore paleo-detectors as an approach to the direct detection of weakly interacting
massive particle (WIMP) dark matter radically different from conventional detectors. Instead …

Directional detection of weakly interacting massive particles, in which the energies and
directions of the recoiling nuclei are measured, currently presents the only prospect for …

Paleo-detectors are a proposed experimental technique to search for dark matter (DM). In
lieu of the conventional approach of operating a tonne-scale real-time detector to search for …
