Prospects of Migdal effect in the explanation of XENON1T electron recoil excess

The XENON1T experiment has recently announced the observation of an excess in electron recoil events at energy range of 1–7 keV with a 3.5σ signal significance over the Standard Model prediction. In this letter we sketch the prospects of explaining such an excess from Migdal ionization events with b...
