Description

The direct detection experiments are reaching new limits in the upcoming searches. Among other things, they will be sensitive to the coherent neutrino scattering background. I will demonstrate the effect of new physics scenarios on the neutrino background at the direct detection experiments. I will further describe the impact on the dark matter constraints due to such a change in the neutrino coherent scattering background.
