- Published
- September 10, 2026
- Identifier
- arXiv:2609.11600
Why it is here
Produces a hard, event-centered spectrum without relying on the Galactic halo's fastest particles.
Machine-assisted summary
The authors combine a cosmic-ray-boosted dark-matter flux with momentum-dependent nonrelativistic operators, finding that $\mathcal{O}_6$ and $\mathcal{O}_{10}$ can peak the xenon recoil spectrum near 248 keV.
