Description
We study inelastic neutrino-nucleus and dark matter(DM)-nucleus scattering using Ar-40 Cs-133, and I-127 nuclei. In particular we use BIGSTICK, a nuclear shell model code, to obtain the structure of the nuclei. We then calculate the inelastic scattering cross section based on two formalism, multipole analysis and Gamow-Teller transition. It concludes that Gamow-Teller operator dominates over multipole operators. For dark matter we consider a vector boson couple to nucleon and dark matter. We also estimate the event rates for the experiments such as CCM and COHERENT.
