We use data from the XENON100 experiment to search for dark matter interacting with electrons. With no evidence for a signal above the low background of our experiment, we exclude a variety of representative dark matter models that would induce electronic recoils. For axial-vector couplings to electrons, we exclude cross sections above 6 × 10–35 cm2 for particle masses of mχ = 2 GeV/c2. Independent of the dark matter halo, we exclude leptophilic models as an explanation for the long-standing DAMA/LIBRA signal, such as couplings to electrons through axial-vector interactions at a 4.4σ confidence level, mirror dark matter at 3.6σ, and luminous dark matter at 4.6σ.STAMPAenArticle10.1126/science.aab20692-s2.0-84939863146000359832700045https://science.sciencemag.org/content/349/6250/851http://arxiv.org/abs/1507.07747v12015Sci...349..851XFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICA
