Title: Dark matter search results from the complete exposure of the PICO-60 $C_{3} F_{8}$ bubble chamber

Abstract

Final results are reported from operation of the PICO-60 C₃F₈ dark matter detector, a bubble chamber filled with 52 kg of C₃F₈ located in the SNOLAB underground laboratory. The chamber was operated at thermodynamic thresholds as low as 1.2 keV without loss of stability. A new blind 1404-kg-day exposure at 2.45 keV threshold was acquired with approximately the same expected total background rate as the previous 1167-kg-day exposure at 3.3 keV. This increased exposure is enabled in part by a new optical tracking analysis to better identify events near detector walls, permitting a larger fiducial volume. These results set the most stringent direct-detection constraint to date on the weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP)-proton spin-dependent cross section at $$3.2×10^{-41}$$ cm² for a 25 GeV WIMP, improving on previous PICO results for 3–5 GeV WIMPs by an order of magnitude.

Dark Matter Search Results from the $PICO - 60 C_{3} F_{8}$ Bubble Chamber

Journal Article Amole, C. ; Ardid, M. ; Arnquist, I. J. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

New results are reported from the operation of the PICO-60 dark matter detector, a bubble chamber filled with 52 kg of C₃F₈ located in the SNOLAB underground laboratory. As in previous PICO bubble chambers, PICO-60 C₃F₈ exhibits excellent electron recoil and alpha decay rejection, and the observed multiple-scattering neutron rate indicates a single-scatter neutron background of less than one event per month. A blind analysis of an efficiency-corrected 1167-kg day exposure at a 3.3-keV thermodynamic threshold reveals no single-scattering nuclear recoil candidates, consistent with the predicted background. In conclusion, these results set the most stringent direct-detection constraint to date on themore »« less

Data-driven modeling of electron recoil nucleation in PICO $C_{3} F_{8}$ bubble chambers

Journal Article Amole, C. ; Ardid, M. ; Arnquist, I. J. ; ... - Physical Review D

The primary advantage of moderately superheated bubble chamber detectors is their simultaneous sensitivity to nuclear recoils from weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter and insensitivity to electron recoil backgrounds. A comprehensive analysis of PICO gamma calibration data demonstrates for the first time that electron recoils in C₃F₈ scale in accordance with a new nucleation mechanism, rather than one driven by a hot spike as previously supposed. Using this semiempirical model, bubble chamber nucleation thresholds may be tuned to be sensitive to lower energy nuclear recoils while maintaining excellent electron recoil rejection. The PICO-40L detector will exploit this model tomore »« less

Dark matter search results from the PICO-60 ${CF}_{3} I$ bubble chamber

Journal Article Amole, C. ; Ardid, M. ; Asner, D. M. ; ... - Physical Review D

New data are reported from the operation of the PICO-60 dark matter detector, a bubble chamber filled with 36.8 kg of CF3I and located in the SNOLAB underground laboratory. PICO-60 is the largest bubble chamber to search for dark matter to date. With an analyzed exposure of 92.8 livedays, PICO-60 exhibits the same excellent background rejection observed in smaller bubble chambers. Alpha decays in PICO-60 exhibit frequency-dependent acoustic calorimetry, similar but not identical to that reported recently in a C3F8 bubble chamber. PICO-60 also observes a large population of unknown background events, exhibiting acoustic, spatial, and timing behaviors inconsistent withmore »« less

Results on photon-mediated dark-matter–nucleus interactions from the PICO-60 C₃F₈ bubble chamber

Journal Article Ali, B. ; Arnquist, I. J. ; Baxter, D. ; ... - Physical Review. D.

Many compelling models predict dark matter coupling to the electromagnetic current through higher multipole interactions, while remaining electrically neutral. Different multipole couplings have been studied, among them anapole moment, electric and magnetic dipole moments, and millicharge. This study sets limits on the couplings for these photon-mediated interactions using nonrelativistic contact operators in an effective field theory framework. Using data from the PICO-60 bubble chamber leading limits for dark matter masses between 2.7 and 24 GeV/c² and above 265 GeV/c² (anapole moment), 2.7 and 11.7 GeV/c² (electric moment), 3 and 9.5 GeV/c² (magnetic moment), and 2.7 and 12 GeV/c² (millicharged) aremore »« less
