A new preprint investigates the nonthermal solar stalling of an inelastic scalar signal within xenon detectors, particularly in response to a recent LUX-ZEPLIN experiment nuclear recoil candidate. The study proposes an anomaly-free U(1)_{B-3L_τ} model, featuring an 840 GeV complex scalar undergoing an endothermic transition. This framework offers a theoretical explanation for potential dark matter interactions observed in such experiments.
