The scattering of dark matter (DM) particles with sub-GeV masses off nuclei is difficult to detect using liquid xenon-based DM search instruments because the energy transfer during nuclear recoils smaller than typical detector threshold. However, tree-level DM-nucleus diagram can be accompanied by simultaneous emission a bremsstrahlung photon or so-called "Migdal" electron. These provide an electron recoil component experimental signature at higher energies corresponding recoil. presence...
