Description
Direct detection via scattering on atomic nuclei remains one of our best hopes to shed light on the mystery of dark matter. Several effective theory frameworks exist that try to capture most of the physics without committing to a specific model. I will present the "ultimate effective theory" for direct detection, valid for non-relativistic dark matter of any spin.
