Journal Article
Cerdeño, D. G., Fornasa, M., Green, A., & Peiro, M. (2016). How to calculate dark matter direct detection exclusion limits that are consistent with gamma rays from annihilation in the Milky Way halo. Physical Review D, 94(4), Article 043516. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.94.043516

When comparing constraints on the weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) properties from direct and indirect detection experiments it is crucial that the assumptions made about the dark matter (DM) distribution are realistic and consistent. For i... Read More about How to calculate dark matter direct detection exclusion limits that are consistent with gamma rays from annihilation in the Milky Way halo.

Physics from solar neutrinos in dark matter direct detection experiments (2016)
Journal Article
Cerdeño, D. G., Fairbairn, M., Jubb, T., Machado, P., Vincent, A., & Boehm, C. (2016). Physics from solar neutrinos in dark matter direct detection experiments. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016(5), Article 118. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep05%282016%29118

The next generation of dark matter direct detection experiments will be sensitive to both coherent neutrino-nucleus and neutrino-electron scattering. This will enable them to explore aspects of solar physics, perform the lowest energy measurement of... Read More about Physics from solar neutrinos in dark matter direct detection experiments.

Enhanced lines and box-shaped features in the gamma-ray spectrum from annihilating dark matter in the NMSSM (2016)
Journal Article

We study spectral features in the gamma-ray emission from dark matter (DM) annihilation in the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM), with either neutralino or right-handed (RH) sneutrino DM . We perform a series of scans over the NMS... Read More about Enhanced lines and box-shaped features in the gamma-ray spectrum from annihilating dark matter in the NMSSM.
