DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Iván Coarasa Casas (CAPA - Universidad de Zaragoza)
 \nThe ANAIS-112 experiment has completed nearly eight years of continuous 
 data taking\, aiming to test the annual modulation signal reported by the 
 DAMA/LIBRA collaboration\, using the same NaI(Tl) target and detection tec
 hnique. Located at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory\, ANAIS-112 has acc
 umulated over 800 kg·yr of exposure\, achieving excellent long-term stabi
 lity and background control. In this talk\, I will present the six-year re
 sults from ANAIS-112\, which lead the international\, model-independent ef
 fort to test the DAMA/LIBRA signal\, and are compatible with the absence o
 f modulation and incompatible with DAMA/LIBRA for a sensitivity above 4σ\
 , with the potential to reach 5σ level by the end of 2025. Systematics af
 fecting the comparison will also be reviewed\, particularly those related 
 to the response of detectors to nuclear recoils. \n\nBeyond ANAIS-112\, th
 e ANAIS+ project proposes a significant technological upgrade: the replace
 ment of conventional PMTs with SiPMs operated at low temperatures. This in
 novation is expected to reduce radioactive backgrounds\, lower the energy 
 threshold\, and improve light collection efficiency -thereby increasing th
 e experiment’s sensitivity to low-mass dark matter. Furthermore\, it wil
 l allow for a more robust and systematics-independent comparison with DAMA
 /LIBRA\, while opening new opportunities for searches of spin-dependent in
 teractions and coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering.\n\nhttps://in

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Vishnu Padmanabhan Kovilakam (Institute of Theoretic
 al Physics\, University of Münster)\nIn this talk\, I will discuss minima
 l realizations of light thermal dark matter (DM) candidates. These scenari
 os typically require a light mediator to ensure sufficient DM annihilation
  rates. We demonstrate that such mediators can arise from additional Higgs
  doublet(s). Within this framework\, we focus on two specific scenarios: (
 1) Forbidden DM\, where DM predominantly annihilates into SM charged lepto
 ns through kinematically forbidden channels\, and (2) Neutrinophilic DM\, 
 where neutrinos serve as the primary annihilation products. In both cases\
 , all BSM states lie at or below electroweak scale\, making these models t
 estable at upcoming colliders\, beam-dump experiments\, future sub-GeV gam
 ma-ray telescopes\, and next-generation neutrino detectors.\n\nhttps://ind
