Limits on WIMP–nucleon interactions from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search at the Soudan Underground Laboratory
We present the results of the first two data runs of the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search at Soudan Underground Laboratory. These data exclude substantial new parameter space for both spin-independent and spin-dependent WIMP–nucleon interactions within the standard halo model. r 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

متن کاملLimits on the Wimp-nucleon Cross-section from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search
The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) employs Ge and Si detectors to search for WIMPs via their elastic-scattering interactions with nuclei while discriminating against interactions of background particles. CDMS I data, from the Stanford Underground Facility shallow site, give limits on the spin-independent WIMPnucleon elastic-scattering cross-section that exclude unexplored parameter space a...

Exclusion Limits on the WIMP-Nucleon Elastic-Scattering Cross Section from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search by Sunil Ramanlal Golwala Doctor of Philosophy in Physics University of California at Berkeley Professor Bernard Sadoulet, Chair Extensive evidence indicates that a large fraction of the matter in the universe is nonluminous, nonbaryonic, and “cold” — nonrelativistic at the time matter be...

The EDELWEISS collaboration is searching for WIMP dark matter using natural Ge cryogenic detectors. The whole data set of the first phase of the experiment contains 4.8 kg.day of data on Ge, the naturally present (7.8%), high-spin Ge isotope. The sensitivity of the experiment to the spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon interactions is evaluated using the model-independent framework proposed by Tovey et ...
متن کاملExclusion limits on the WIMP-nucleon cross section from the cryogenic dark matter search.
The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) employs Ge and Si detectors to search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) via their elastic-scattering interactions with nuclei while discriminating against interactions of background particles. CDMS data, accounting for the neutron background, give limits on the spin-independent WIMP-nucleon elastic-scattering cross section that exclude unex...
متن کاملResults from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search at Soudan Underground Laboratory
We present results from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search at Soudan Underground Laboratory for two-tower arrays of detector. Twelve detectors were operated from March 25 to August 8, 2004, or 74.5 detector live days. Within expected background, no statistically significant indication of a WIMP signal was observed. Based on this null observation and combined with our previous results, we exclude ...
