Search for dark matter-electron scatters with DarkSide-50
ORAL
Abstract
The DarkSide-50 experiment uses a two-phase argon time projection chamber to directly search for dark matter interactions. The energy threshold of the detector can be lowered by including ionization-only events. While background rejection is lost, DarkSide-50's sensitivity is expanded to sub-GeV dark-matter candidates. I will present DarkSide-50's updated search for WIMP-electron scatters with a larger exposure coupled with improved calibrations, modeling, and analysis.
