Understand

It is known that theories of phantom dark energy, considered as quantum fields, predict a continuous production of positive- plus negative-energy particles, from spontaneous decay of the vacuum.

We show that this can be a new source of boosted dark matter or radiation, with consequences for direct detection.
We set constraints on such models using data from the XENONnT experiment, and we show that recent excess events reported by the DAMIC experiment can be consistently described as coming from dark radiation, produced by vacuum decay, interacting with electrons.
