DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Tetiana Kozynets (University of Liverpool)\n\nAbstra
 ct: At sub-GeV dark matter masses\, spin-independent (SI) dark matter-nucl
 eon scattering remains largely unconstrained by direct detection experimen
 ts. In this talk\, I will show that this parameter space can be probed thr
 ough the scattering of Galactic dark matter within the Earth en route to d
 irect detection facilities. The trajectories and spectra of the dark matte
 r particles are progressively distorted with increasing Earth-crossing pat
 h length\, creating anisotropy in the dark matter flux incident on the det
 ector. Combined with the Earth’s periodic rotation about its axis\, this
  leads to a characteristic daily modulation of the dark matter signal\, wh
 ich can be distinguished from time-independent backgrounds even at very lo
 w energy thresholds. I will present statistical techniques which can be us
 ed to utilise this signature and derive the expected SI dark matter-nucleo
 n cross section sensitivities for noble liquid targets.\n\nhttps://indico.
