DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Rebecca Leane (SLAC and KIPAC)\n\nSub-GeV dark matte
 r is a well-motivated possibility. However\, its feeble interactions make 
 it hard to detect\, often falling below experimental thresholds\, requirin
 g new detection ideas. In this talk I will describe two complementary\, da
 ta-driven strategies to close in on light dark matter. First\, I will show
  how large neutrino observatories can be repurposed to look for the cumula
 tive imprint of many tiny dark-matter interactions\, identified through a 
 distinctive yearly variation expected from Earth's motion. Second\, I will
  present a new astrophysical approach that uses faint hydrogen emission fr
 om nearby\, quiescent dwarf galaxies as a tracer of energy injected by dar
 k matter\, and demonstrate how existing observations already yield powerfu
 l new constraints. Together these methods leverage current instruments in 
 new ways and outline clear paths to substantially improved dark matter sen
 sitivity in the near term.\n\nhttps://indico.phys.hawaii.edu/event/2742/
