Ionisation of Atoms by WIMP Scattering On Electrons |
|
Abstract |
Electron relativistic effects increase differential cross section for ionisation of atoms by heavy slow particles scattering on electrons by several orders of magnitude. The applications include WIMP scattering on electrons studied in the underground laboratories by several experimental groups including DAMA, XENON and others. |
