Gravitational production of hidden photon dark matter in light of the XENON1T excess

Recently, the XENON1T experiment has reported an excess in the electronic recoil events. The excess is consistent with the interpretation of absorption of 3 keV bosonic dark matter, for example, hidden photon dark matter with kinetic mixing of the order of 10−15. We point out that the minimally grav...
