论文摘要
与暗物质弹性散射核的特征相比,原子核对效率暗物质的吸收为带有特征性的单词信号的新的搜索通道打开了新的搜索通道。在这封信中,我们探索了Pandax-4T调试运行中的$ 95.0 $日数据,并通过中性的当前过程报告了费米子暗物质吸收信号的第一个专用搜索结果。没有发现明显的信号,并且暗物质 - 核子互动横截面的最低限制设置为$ 1.5 \ times10^{ - 50} $ cm $^2 $,用于费米子的暗物质质量$ 40 $ MEV/$ C^2 $,带有90 \%的信心水平。
Compared with the signature of dark matter elastic scattering off nuclei, the absorption of fermionic dark matter by nuclei opens up a new searching channel for light dark matter with a characteristic monoenergetic signal. In this Letter, we explore the $95.0$-day data from the PandaX-4T commissioning run and report the first dedicated searching results of the fermionic dark matter absorption signal through a neutral current process. No significant signal was found, and the lowest limit on the dark matter-nucleon interaction cross section is set to be $1.5\times10^{-50}$ cm$^2$ for a fermionic dark matter mass of $40$ MeV/$c^2$ with 90\% confidence level.
