Summary: Dark matter spikes surrounding black holes in our Galaxy are significant sites of dark matter annihilation that may produce detectable neutrino signals. This paper examines the association of 10 - 105M (R) black holes with dark matter spikes that formed in early minihalos and still exist in the Milky Way today, using neutrino data from the ANTARES and IceCube detectors. The study places constraints on the distribution of dark matter spikes and provides significant limits on the formation of the first generation of stars in early minihalos, stronger than previous limits from gamma-ray searches. The research also suggests that larger black holes could be remnants of Dark Stars and neutrino observations can constrain their properties.

Summary: This work presents the realization of the first low-threshold cryogenic detector using diamond as an absorber for astroparticle physics applications. We tested two CVD diamond samples and found that the sensors showed transitions at around 25 mK. The best performing diamond detector achieved an energy threshold as low as 16.8 eV. This promising result lays the foundation for diamond's use in various applications that require low threshold and excellent energy resolution, such as light dark matter searches and BSM physics with coherent elastic neutrino nucleus scattering.

Summary: Large panels of etched plastic are used on the Skylab Space Station and in the Ohya quarry near Tokyo to set limits on fluxes of cosmogenic particles and provide sensitivity for heavy dark matter interacting with nuclei. Revisiting prior dark matter bounds from Skylab, incorporating new factors, substantially narrows the mass range. An analysis of Ohya data covers part of the Skylab bound and excludes dark matter masses up to the Planck mass, with prospects for future searches discussed.

Summary: We propose a novel method to detect weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter candidates that fall short of satisfying correct thermal relic abundance. Late entropy dilution is used to bring the overproduced relic within observed limits, while generating peculiar spectral shapes of gravitational waves (GWs) resulting from cosmic strings formed due to symmetry breaking. The correlation between DM mass and turning frequency of the GW spectrum provides potential for future experiments.

Summary: This article discusses the development of a germanium detector with internal charge amplification for the search of low-mass dark matter. The fabrication process of the detector is described, and measurements of leakage current and capacitance as a function of applied bias voltage are presented. The calculations predict that the required electric field for internal charge amplification can be achieved near the point contact. The energy response to an Am-241 source is characterized and discussed, and the potential of the detector for low-mass dark matter detection is evaluated.

Summary: In the XENON1T dark matter experiment, a search for the inelastic scattering of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) off Xe-129 was conducted. Despite using an exposure of 0.83 tonne-years, no evidence of inelastic WIMP scattering was found with a significance of more than 2 sigma. Upper limits on the cross section of WIMP-nucleus interactions were set, excluding new parameter space for WIMPs heavier than 100 GeV/c².

Summary: CUORE Upgrade with Particle IDentification (CUPID) is a planned large-scale experiment that aims to explore the inverted hierarchy of neutrino masses and search for neutrinoless double beta decay of Mo-100 by studying the heat and light signals of a Li2MoO4 (LMO) cryogenic calorimeter array. Pile-up events from standard double beta decay of the candidate isotope are considered as relevant background, and the experiment involves injecting Joule heater pulses to generate pile-up heat events in a small array of LMO crystals operated underground. The performance of supervised learning classifiers on the data and the achieved pile-up rejection efficiency are presented.

Summary: The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Survey validated its survey design and target selections by obtaining spectroscopic measurements of approximately 2500 bright galaxies, 3500 luminous red galaxies (LRGs), and 10,000 emission-line galaxies (ELGs). The results show that the final survey design produces samples of bright galaxies, LRGs, and ELGs with purity greater than 99%. The precision of the redshift measurements is approximately 10 km/s for bright galaxies and ELGs and approximately 40 km/s for LRGs.

Summary: The EDELWEISS collaboration is working on directly detecting light dark matter using germanium cryogenic detectors. They have developed Ge bolometers with high impedance thermistors based on a NbxSi1-x TES alloy, allowing the TES impedance to match with JFET or HEMT front-end amplifiers. The behavior of the superconducting transition properties of these sensors and the detector optimization in terms of sensitivity to a-thermal phonons are discussed, along with the preliminary results of a 200 g Ge detector calibrated using Ge-71 activation.

Summary: A detailed visual inspection of the optical spectroscopic data is crucial for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey validation. This paper presents the results of the quasar survey using deep coadded SV spectra, showing that the majority of the main-survey targets are confirmed as quasars. A modified pipeline is introduced to increase the quasar yield by recovering misidentified quasars. Both the standard and modified pipelines achieve high redshift purity and demonstrate good redshift precision and accuracy.

Summary: The CUPID-Mo experiment was conducted in Modane, France, to demonstrate the CUPID technology. By studying the LMO calorimeters, it was found that Mo-100 undergoes two-neutrino and neutrinoless double-beta decays to the excited states of Ru-100. The measured half-life for the two-neutrino decay to the 0(1)(+) state was (7.5 +/- 1 0.8 (stat.)(-0.3)(+0.4)) x 10(20) years, and new limits were set for other decay modes.

Summary: The future RICOCHET experiment aims to search for new physics in the electroweak sector by measuring the Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CENNS). The experiment will use a low-energy-threshold detector array with Ge and Zn target crystals, located near a research nuclear reactor core. The RICOCHET Collaboration is characterizing the neutron backgrounds to optimize the experiment's shielding design. The results show that the experiment should reach a statistical significance of 4.6 to 13.6 sigma for the detection of CENNS after one reactor cycle.

Summary: The nu GeN experiment aims to study the properties of neutrinos using antineutrinos from the Kalinin Nuclear Power Plant reactor. The experimental setup is located 11 meters away from the reactor core and uses a high purity germanium detector to detect the scattering of antineutrinos. Both passive and active shieldings are used to minimize background interference. The results show no significant difference between the spectra of data taken with the reactor on and off, indicating no positive signals for coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering. The upper limit for the quenching parameter k in germanium is set to be less than 0.26 (90% confidence level) under the assumptions of the Standard Model.
