Description

Multiple viable theoretical models predict heavy dark matter particles with a mass close to the Planck mass, a range relatively unexplored by current experimental measurements. We conducted a blind search for signals from Multiply-Interacting Massive Particles (MIMPs) in XENON1T, whose unique track signature allowed a targeted analysis with only 0.05 expected background events from muons. We observed no signal candidate events in the search data with a total exposure of 219.4 days. In this poster, we will present the search strategy and the new constraints on spin-independent and spin-dependent interactions of dark matter particles with masses close to the Planck scale.
