Description
Coherent Captain Mills (CCM) is a 10-ton liquid argon scintillation detector located at the Lujan Neutron Science Center at Los Alamos. CCM searches for sterile neutrinos and dark matter generated from an 800 MeV proton beam. In this talk I will discuss CCM’s search for sub-GeV dark matter candidates including both vector portal and leptophobic dark matter as well as other dark sector particles like axion-like-particles(ALPS). I will present the results of an analysis performed on data collected from a 2019 engineering run as well as plans for an upcoming 2021 physics run with a significantly upgraded detector.
