Mache3 : a New Generation Detector for Non-baryonic Dark Matter Direct Detection
نویسنده
چکیده
MACHe3 (MAtrix of Cells of superfluid He) is a project of a new detector for direct Dark Matter (DM) search, using superfluid He as a sensitive medium. An experiment on a prototype cell has been performed and the first results reported here are encouraging to develop of a multicell prototype. In order to investigate the discovery potential of MACHe3, and its complementarity with other DM detectors, a phenomenological study done with the DarkSUSY code is shown.

MACHe3 (MAtrix of Cells of superfluid Helium 3) is a project of non-baryonic Dark Matter search using superfluid 3 He as sensitive medium. Simulations on a high granularity matrix show very good rejection against background events. First results on a prototype cell are very encouraging. Neutron detection has been highlighted as well as cosmic muon detection. A phenomenological study has been do...
متن کاملA SUPERFLUID He DETECTOR FOR DIRECT DARK MATTER SEARCH
MACHe3 (MAtrix of Cells of superfluid He) is a project of a new detector for direct Dark Matter Search. The idea is to use superfluid He as a sensitive medium. The existing device, the superfluid He cell, will be briefly introduced. Then a description of the MACHe3 project will be presented, in particular the background rejection and the neutralino event rate that may be achieved with such a de...

MACHe3 (MAtrix of Cells of Helium 3) is a project for non-baryonic dark matter search using He as a sensitive medium. Simulations made on a high granularity detector show a very good rejection to background signals. A multicell prototype including 3 bolometers has been developed to allow correlations between the cells for background event discrimination. One of the cells contains a low activity...

متن کاملNon-Baryonic Dark Matter
These lectures on non-baryonic dark matter matter are divided into two parts. In the first part, I discuss the need for non-baryonic dark matter in light of recent results in cosmology, and I present some of the most popular candidates for non-baryonic dark matter. These include neutrinos, axions, neutralinos, WIMPZILLAs, etc. In the second part, I overview several observational techniques that...
