SLAC gears up for Dark Matter hunt
Researchers have come a step closer to building one of the world's best dark matter detectors: The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recently signed off on the conceptual design of the proposed LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment and gave the green light for the procurement of some of its components. DOE's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, a key member of the LZ collaboration, is setting up a test sta...
متن کاملFirst results from the LUX dark matter experiment at the Sanford underground research facility.
The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) experiment is a dual-phase xenon time-projection chamber operating at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (Lead, South Dakota). The LUX cryostat was filled for the first time in the underground laboratory in February 2013. We report results of the first WIMP search data set, taken during the period from April to August 2013, presenting the analysis of 85....
متن کاملLimits on the spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon cross sections from the first science run of the ZEPLIN-III experiment.
We present new experimental constraints on the WIMP-nucleon spin-dependent elastic cross sections using data from the first science run of ZEPLIN-III, a two-phase xenon experiment searching for galactic dark matter weakly interacting massive particles based at the Boulby mine. Analysis of approximately 450 kg x days fiducial exposure allow us to place a 90%-confidence upper limit on the pure WI...
متن کاملFiat lux
Just as engineers learnt to harness the power of electrons in transistors and microchips—which revolutionized modern society—physicists and biologists are now learning how to tame photons. Their work is generating exciting new possibilities for optical microscopy, with a resolution and level of detail hitherto undreamt of. Biophotonics is a new and exciting research field that is already delive...
متن کاملBeyond the CMSSM without an accelerator: proton decay and direct dark matter detection
We consider two potential non-accelerator signatures of generalizations of the well-studied constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model (CMSSM). In one generalization, the universality constraints on soft supersymmetry-breaking parameters are applied at some input scale [Formula: see text]below the grand unification (GUT) scale [Formula: see text], a scenario referred to as 'sub-GUT'. The...
