It is thus crucial to have accurate predictions for any DM-electron interaction rate in this regime. EXCEED-DM (EXtended Calculation of Electronic Excitations for Direct detection of Dark Matter) computes DM-electron interaction rates with inputs from a variety of ab initio electronic structure calculations. The purpose of this manuscript is two-fold: to familiarize the user with the formalism and inputs of EXCEED-DM, and perform novel calculations to showcase what EXCEED-DM is capable of. We perform four calculations which extend previous results: the scattering rate in the dark photon model, screened with the numerically computed dielectric function, the scattering rate with an interaction potential dependent on the electron velocity, an extended absorption calculation for scalar, pseudoscalar, and vector DM, and the annual modulation of the scattering rate in the dark photon model.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.14917v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2210.14917v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"exceed-dm-extended-calculation-of-electronic","repo_url":"https://github.com/tanner-trickle/EXCEED-DM","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
