Talk Dark Matter

Speaker

Farinaldo Queiroz

Description

For several decades, the community has intensely pursued the Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) paradigm through accelerator searches, as well as direct and indirect detection experiments. Despite the impressive progress in sensitivity, all of these efforts have so far yielded null results. This situation has motivated the exploration of alternative dark‑matter candidates and innovative detection mechanisms, capable of probing qualitatively new regions of parameter space.In this talk, we will introduce new detection strategies for light dark matter based on two very distinct methods: one using lasers together with low‑energy accelerators focused on the dark‑photon model, and another based on nanomagnet systems designed to probe the QCD axion and dark‑photon models.
