Direct searches for dark matter
In the last decade considerable additional evidence has been gathered supporting the hypothesis that at least 90% of the mass in the universe is dark: it does not emit or absorb any form of electromagnetic radiation. Understanding this dark matter has become one of the more central problems in astronomy and cosmology. Once a subject of controversy among astronomers, its existence is now well es...
متن کاملExperimental Searches for Dark Matter
There is now an enormously rich variety of experimental techniques being brought to bear on experimental searches for dark matter, covering a wide range of suggested forms for it. The existence of "dark matter", in some form or other, is inferred from a number of relatively simple observations and the problem has been known for over half a century. To explain "dark matter" is one of the foremos...
متن کاملCryogenic scintillators in searches for extremely rare events
Inorganic scintillators are important elements of a new type of cryogenic phonon scintillation detector (CPSD) being developed for single particle detection. These detectors, exhibiting superior energy resolution and the ability to identify the type of interaction in an event, are considered to be the next generation of instrumentation in the search for extremely rare events. This paper present...
متن کاملDark Matter Searches
I'll start with a summary of the relevant evidence for cold dark matter from astrophysics and cosmology. The Standard Model of subnuclear physics does not have any dark matter particle, but its simplest extensions, the SUSY models, do have a very apt candidate, the neutralino. I will then briefly summarise the status and the expectations for the next years of indirect searches both with earth-b...
متن کاملDark Matter searches and Colliders
We study the potential of neutralino dark matter searches and SUSY particle production at colliders in the framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We show the effects of a non universal gluino mass parameter. The future experiments will be a stringent probe of the low energy MSSM and neutralino dark matter scenario. The deeper informations on both supersymmetry and astrophysics ...
