Neutrino experiments will have leading sensitivity to several dark matter and dark sector models. I discuss signals from a range of different dark sector models, from induced nucleon decay in mesogenesis models to production, scattering, and decay of dark sector states in neutrino beams. I present simulation tools for boosted dark matter and induced nucleon decay signals. I discuss some...

Dark matter experiments using liquid xenon and liquid argon targets have demonstrated exceptional sensitivities to medium- to high-mass dark matter candidates. Therefore, these two technologies are strong contenders for the G3 dark matter project and may explore WIMP parameter spaces down to the irreducible neutrino background. Meanwhile, new developments in noble liquid detector design and...

We know dark matter exists and we have been trying to directly detect it for almost 40 years. Experiments searching for the heavily-favored candidate, the GeV-scale WIMP, have thus far yielded null results. Recently, the field has pushed towards a new class of “hidden sector” particles, with masses below the proton. To observe this type of “light” dark matter, new, extremely sensitive...
