This thesis summarizes the original analysis work performed by the
author on data from XENON1T, a search for dark matter with a
ton-size noble liquid detector operated at Gran Sasso Underground
Laboratory in Italy. The nature of dark matter is one of the most
open and pressing questions of modern physics, and the unique data
acquired with this detector allows the exploration and
investigation of several potential scenarios. The analysis of Dr.
Shockley searches for a class of elusive elementary particles that
interact with the electrons of ordinary atoms, instead of the
nucleus. Results of the analysis present, with high confidence, an
excess with respect to the expected background. Beyond more mundane
explanations, this additional rate of electron-mediated
interactions might be a first hint of physics beyond the standard
model. This accessible thesis provides details on the detector, the
data, and the theory, delivering to the reader an in-depth and
coherent picture of the search for physics beyond the standard
model.
