TL;DR
This paper explores how Super-Kamiokande can test low-mass dark matter models, including neutralinos and WIMPless dark matter, by analyzing fully-contained events to investigate the DAMA/LIBRA signal.
Contribution
It demonstrates the potential of upcoming Super-Kamiokande analyses to probe low-mass dark matter interpretations of DAMA/LIBRA.
Findings
Super-Kamiokande can test dark matter masses from 5 to 10 GeV.
Analysis sensitivity includes neutralinos and WIMPless dark matter.
Upcoming data can confirm or refute DAMA/LIBRA dark matter hypothesis.
Abstract
We consider the prospects for probing low-mass dark matter with the Super-Kamiokande experiment. We show that upcoming analyses including fully-contained events with sensitivity to dark matter masses from 5 to 10 GeV can test the dark matter interpretation of the DAMA/LIBRA signal. We consider prospects of this analysis for two light dark matter candidates: neutralinos and WIMPless dark matter.
