Sensitivity of the EDELWEISS WIMP search to spin-dependent interactions
arXiv:astro-ph/0412061 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2005.04.052
Abstract
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 a fiducial exposure of 4.8 kg.day on Ge-73, 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 al.
