Model-independent determination of the WIMP mass from direct dark matter detection data

Journal Article Drees, Manuel ; Shan, Chung-Lin - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

Weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) are one of the leading candidates for dark matter. We develop a model-independent method for determining the mass m{sub {chi}} of the WIMP by using data (i.e. measured recoil energies) of direct detection experiments. Our method is independent of the as yet unknown WIMP density near the Earth, of the form of the WIMP velocity distribution, as well as of the WIMP-nucleus cross section. However, it requires positive signals from at least two detectors with different target nuclei. In a background-free environment, m{sub {chi}}{approx}50 GeV could in principle be determined with an error of {approx}35%more »« less

Direct detection of WIMPs: implications of a self-consistent truncated isothermal model of the Milky Way's dark matter halo

Journal Article Chaudhury, Soumini ; Bhattacharjee, Pijushpani ; Cowsik, Ramanath - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

Direct detection of Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) candidates of Dark Matter (DM) is studied within the context of a self-consistent truncated isothermal model of the finite-size dark halo of the Galaxy. The halo model, based on the ''King model'' of the phase space distribution function of collisionless DM particles, takes into account the modifications of the phase-space structure of the halo due to the gravitational influence of the observed visible matter in a self-consistent manner. The parameters of the halo model are determined by a fit to a recently determined circular rotation curve of the Galaxy that extends upmore »« less

Readout technologies for directional WIMP Dark Matter detection

Journal Article Battat, J. B. R. ; Irastorza, I. G. ; Aleksandrov, A. ; ... - Physics Reports

We report that the measurement of the direction of WIMP-induced nuclear recoils is a compelling but technologically challenging strategy to provide an unambiguous signature of the detection of Galactic dark matter. Most directional detectors aim to reconstruct the dark-matter-induced nuclear recoil tracks, either in gas or solid targets. The main challenge with directional detection is the need for high spatial resolution over large volumes, which puts strong requirements on the readout technologies. In this paper we review the various detector readout technologies used by directional detectors. In particular, we summarize the challenges, advantages and drawbacks of each approach, and discussmore »« less

A Study of Nuclear Recoils in Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber for the Direct Detection of WIMP Dark Matter

Thesis/Dissertation Cao, Huajie

Robust results of WIMP direct detection experiments depend on rm understandings of nuclear recoils in the detector media. This thesis documents the most comprehensive study to date on nuclear recoils in liquid argon - a strong candidate for the next generation multi-ton scale WIMP detectors. This study investigates both the energy partition from nuclear recoil energy to secondary modes (scintillation and ionization) and the pulse shape characteristics of scintillation from nuclear recoils.
