This report provides an extensive review of the experimental programme of direct detection
searches of particle dark matter. It focuses mostly on European efforts, both current and …

We review the landscape of QCD axion models. Theoretical constructions that extend the
window for the axion mass and couplings beyond conventional regions are highlighted and …

In this paper, we construct the circular velocity curve of the Milky Way out to∼ 30 kpc,
providing an updated model of the dark matter density profile. We derive precise parallaxes …

The nature of dark matter and properties of neutrinos are among the most pressing issues in
contemporary particle physics. The dual-phase xenon time-projection chamber is the …

The existence of dark matter as evidenced by numerous indirect observations is one of the
most important indications that there must be physics beyond the Standard Model of particle …

We review several current aspects of dark matter theory and experiment. We overview the
present experimental status, which includes current bounds and recent claims and hints of a …

Although dark matter is a central element of modern cosmology, the history of how it became
accepted as part of the dominant paradigm is often ignored or condensed into an anecdotal …

ANAIS (annual modulation with NaI scintillators) is a dark matter direct detection experiment
consisting of 112.5 kg of NaI (Tl) detectors in operation at the Canfranc Underground …

We review scenarios in which the particles that account for the Dark Matter (DM) in the
Universe interact only through their couplings with the Higgs sector of the theory, the so …

We study in detail sub-GeV dark matter scattering off electrons in xenon, including the
expected electron recoil spectra and annual modulation spectra. We derive improved …
