Explore a comprehensive lecture on the Migdal effect and its implications for dark matter detection. Delve into the necessity of revisiting previous calculations to provide more accurate predictions for neutral particle scattering by atomic nuclei, considering large nuclear recoil velocities and multiple ionisation effects. Examine the relevance of these findings for dark matter direct detection searches and ongoing experiments with neutron sources. Discover the potential of the HydroX proposal to enhance the LZ experiment's sensitivity to dark matter masses as low as 5 MeV for both spin-independent and spin-dependent scattering. Learn how this technique could significantly improve the detection of spin-dependent proton scattering, surpassing the capabilities of current experiments. Join speaker Matthew Dolan from the University of Melbourne for this insightful 1-hour and 15-minute presentation at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies DIAS.
