In a seminal paper now a decade old, it was shown that dark matter detectors geared at probing interactions with nucleons could also be used to probe dark matter interactions with electrons. In this work, we show that new detector concepts designed to probe dark matter-electron interactions at low masses can similarly be used to probe new parameter space for dark matter-nucleon interactions. We demonstrate the power of this approach by using existing data from superconducting detectors to place new limits on the interactions of nuclei with MeV-scale dark matter. Further, we show that advances in detector technology that have been anticipated for electronic interactions will automatically extend sensitivity deep into uncharted territory for nuclear interactions. This doubles the effective science output of future low-threshold experiments.

Dark Matter Weather: Probing Sub-GeV Interactions with Earth-Shielding Modulation
Daily Earth-shielding modulation of sub-GeV dark matter can separate dark-matter–electron from dark-matter–nucleon scattering, and the isoangle shape statistic provides a new validation handle for liquid-noble detectors.
