Directionality of nuclear recoils in a liquid argon time projection chamber

20k Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. Ahmad +264

The direct search for dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMP) is performed by detecting nuclear recoils (NR) produced in a target material from the W…
