Description
Hunting for neutrinos arising from captured dark matter annihilating in the Sun has long been one of the main indirect-detection search strategies. This strategy, however, has been thought to be largely insensitive to dark matter which annihilates purely to light quarks. In this talk I will discuss prospects for probing these types of models by focusing on \textit{monoenergetic} neutrinos, which arise from decays of hadronic annihilation byproducts which are stopped within the core of the Sun. I will show that we can obtain competitive and complementary sensitivities for few-GeV dark matter using this strategy.
