XENON1T constraints on neutrino non-standard interactions

preprint2020arXivOpen access

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′Z' with renormalisable and dipole-like interactions with the active and light sterile neutrinos. In passing, we also address the possibility of explaining the XENON1T excess around electron recoil energy ~ 2 keV in presence of such NSI.
