A first-principles QFT treatment of dark matter scattering off atomic electrons shows that free-electron factorization can fail and that relativistic Dirac wave functions reduce the xenon atomic factor by 30-50% relative to non-relativistic Schrödinger wave functions.

abstract
Processes of the inelastic magnetic and weak scattering of tritium-beta-source antineutrinos on the bound electrons of a germanium atom are considered. The results obtained by calculating the spectra and cross sections are presented for the energy-transfer range between 1 eV and 18 keV.

Relativistic Atomic Effects of Dark Matter Electron Scattering
A first-principles QFT treatment of dark matter scattering off atomic electrons shows that free-electron factorization can fail and that relativistic Dirac wave functions reduce the xenon atomic factor by 30-50% relative to non-relativistic Schrödinger wave functions.
