Theoretical WIMP–Nucleus Scattering Rates for Isomeric Nuclei

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The direct detection of dark matter constituents, in particular the weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), is central to particle physics and cosmology. In this paper we develop the formalism for WIMP-Nucleus induced transitions from isomeric nuclear states. We specialize it in the case of the experimentally interesting target 180 Ta
