Dark matter interactions with electrons or protons during the early Universe leave imprints
on the cosmic microwave background and the matter power spectrum, and can be probed …

The search for particle-like dark matter with meV-to-GeV masses has developed rapidly in
the past few years. We summarize the science case for these searches, the recent progress …

A bstract The irreducible upscattering of cold dark matter by cosmic rays opens up the
intriguing possibility of detecting even light dark matter in conventional direct detection …

Dark matter (DM) particles with sufficiently large cross sections may scatter as they travel
through Earth's bulk. The corresponding changes in the DM flux give rise to a characteristic …

Solid-state detectors with a low energy threshold have several applications, including
searches of non-relativistic halo dark-matter particles with sub-GeV masses. When …

The detectability of light dark matter in direct detection experiments is limited by the small
kinetic energy of the recoiling targets. Thus, scenarios where dark matter is boosted to …

If dark matter interacts too strongly with nuclei, it could be slowed to undetectable speeds in
Earth's crust or atmosphere before reaching a detector. For sub-GeV dark matter …

The growing interest in the interactions between dark matter particles and electrons has
received a further boost by the observation of an excess in electron recoil events in the …

Recently a dark matter–electron (DM–electron) paradigm has drawn much attention. Models
beyond the standard halo model describing DM accelerated by high energy celestial bodies …

The search for sub-GeV dark matter via scattering on electrons has ramped up in the last few
years. Like in the case of dark matter scattering on nuclei, electron-recoil-based searches …
