The dark Stodolsky effect: constraining effective dark matter operators with spin-dependent interactions (2023)
Journal Article
Rostagni, G., & Shergold, J. D. (2023). The dark Stodolsky effect: constraining effective dark matter operators with spin-dependent interactions. Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2023(July), 1-33. https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2023/07/018

We present a comprehensive discussion of the Stodolsky effect for dark matter (DM), and discuss two techniques to measure the effect and constrain the DM parameter space. The Stodolsky effect is the spin-dependent shift in the energy of a Standard Mo...

Limits on the cosmic neutrino background (2023)
Journal Article
Bauer, M., & Shergold, J. D. (2023). Limits on the cosmic neutrino background. Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2023(01), Article 003. https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2023/01/003

We present the first comprehensive discussion of constraints on the cosmic neutrino background (CνB) overdensity, including theoretical, experimental and cosmological limits for a wide range of neutrino masses and temperatures. Additionally, we calcu... Read More about Limits on the cosmic neutrino background.

Updated detection prospects for relic neutrinos using coherent scattering (2021)
Journal Article
Shergold, J. D. (2021). Updated detection prospects for relic neutrinos using coherent scattering. Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2021(11), Article 052. https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2021/11/052

We review the existing proposals to detect relic neutrinos using the coherent scattering of a neutrino wind on a test mass. By considering the transformation of the neutrino momentum between reference frames, we demonstrate that the induced accelerat...

Relic neutrinos at accelerator experiments (2021)
Journal Article
Bauer, M., & Shergold, J. D. (2021). Relic neutrinos at accelerator experiments. Physical Review D, 104(8), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.104.083039

We present a new technique for observing low energy neutrinos with the aim of detecting the cosmic neutrino background using ion storage rings. Utilizing high energy targets exploits the quadratic increase in the neutrino capture cross section with b... Read More about Relic neutrinos at accelerator experiments.
