XENON1T constraints on neutrino non-standard interactions

Abstract: The new XENON1T observation of dark matter-electron scattering cross-section, along with further constraining many popular dark matter models, has indicated the possibility of new physics at a low energy. We point out that this new observation also significantly constrain the neutrino non-standard interactions (NSI). We consider the NSI arising from a kinetically mixed Z with renormalisable and dipole-like interactions with the active and light sterile neutrinos. In passing, we also address the possibility of … Show more

“…Here we focus on transition magnetic moments in the presence of light electroweak singlet neutrinos. As a motivation, these would have an impact on experiments such as XENON1T [24][25][26] and IceCube [27]. Neutrino experiments looking for coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEνNS) or elastic neutrino-electron scattering (EνES) events have been proven to be a valuable tool for investigating neutrino oscillations beyond the standard three-neutrino picture, such as deviations from lepton unitarity [28][29][30], or the presence of light sterile neutrinos [31].…”

“…The dark matter (DM) direct detection experiments can also probe neutrinos and their interaction with electron or nuclei. The recent observations of electron recoil at Xenon detectors [53][54][55] have prompted several possible explanations with light mediator between neutrino and electron, including scalar [56][57][58][59][60] and vector [56][57][58][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67] bosons, eletromagnetic interactions [57,58,65,66,[68][69][70][71] with massless photon, and sterile neutrino [72][73][74][75]. Due to the intrinsic energy threshold ∼ O(1 keV) of DM experiments, the typical momentum transfer is around O(10 keV) for electron recoil and O(1 MeV) for nuclei recoil.…”

“…Possible realizations include magnetic dipole moment, charge radius and anapole [3,[46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54], all with the massless photon as mediator. In addition, light scalar [55][56][57] and vector [55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63] mediators can also achieve the same purpose. It is interesting to observe that only scalar and vector mediators have been used to explain the low energy peak while the pseudo-scalar one was claimed to be incapable of achieving the goal [56].…”
