Nuclear Recoils from Invisible Neutron-Pair Annihilation and the LZ event
- Published
- September 10, 2026
- Updated
- September 29, 2026
- Identifier
- arXiv:2609.12045
Why it is here
Turns the event into a nuclear-disappearance line with isotope and companion-signal cross-checks.
Machine-assisted summary
The authors interpret the candidate as bound-neutron-pair annihilation into an invisible scalar, producing isotope-dependent recoil lines and, at the LZ-motivated mass, additional lower-energy xenon recoils with electromagnetic or neutron signals.
