Isospin-Violating Dark Matter

  • SPEAKER Danny Marfatia, Kansas Univeristy

Searches for dark matter scattering off nuclei are typically compared assuming that the dark matter’s spin-independent couplings are identical for protons and neutrons. This assumption is neither without consequence nor well motivated. We consider isospin-violating dark matter with one extra parameter, the ratio of neutron to proton couplings. For a single choice of this ratio, the DAMA and CoGeNT signals are consistent with each other and with XENON constraints, and unambiguously predict a signal at CRESST.
