| contents | In this work, we investigate the projected sensitivity of the Beam-Dump eXperiment at the International Linear Collider (ILC-BDX) to inelastic fermionic dark matter coupled to the Standard Model photon through an off-diagonal magnetic dipole operator. We compute the production rate of dark matter states in the bremsstrahlung like process $e^- N \to e^- N γ^* (\to χ_{1} \barχ_0)$, induced by the scattering of high-energy electrons on target nuclei. The resulting boosted dark matter fluxes are then propagated to the detector, where the signal events arise from scattering off detector electrons. The projected exclusion limits are derived using the expected numbers of electrons on target (this implies a typical rate of $4.0~\times~10^{21}/\mbox{year}$) corresponding to 1 year and 10 years of data taking. To characterize the impact of inelasticity, we consider two benchmark relative mass splittings, $Δ=0.05$ and $Δ=0.001$, motivated by thermal dark matter scenarios. Our results show that ILC-BDX can probe inelastic magnetic-dipole dark matter over a phenomenologically relevant region of parameter space. |
