For sub-GeV dark matter, the light and heavy mediator mass limits in direct detection are separated by up to three orders of magnitude in mediator mass, enabling precise sensitivity calculations for Si, Ge, and DAMIC-M targets.

Xenon data constrain inelastic fermion DM with scalar mediator for sub-MeV mass splittings through endothermic and exothermic DM-electron scattering.
NRQCD calculations predict low event yields (0-172) and poor significances (10^{-6} to 10^{-1}) for dark photon mediated J/ψ decays at BESIII, with four-body invisible channels offering relatively better prospects below 0.2 GeV.
