Background Rejection in the DMTPC Dark Matter Search Using Charge Signals
J. P. Lopez, D. Dujmic, S. Ahlen +11
The Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber (DMTPC) collaboration is developing a low pressure gas TPC for detecting Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP)-nucleon interactions. Op…
Background Rejection in the DMTPC Dark Matter Search Using Charge Signals
J. P. Lopez, S. Ahlen, J. Battat +25
The Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber (DMTPC) collaboration is developing low-pressure gas TPC detectors for measuring WIMP-nucleon interactions. Optical readout with CCD cameras…
DMTPC: Dark matter detection with directional sensitivity
J. B. R. Battat, S. Ahlen, T. Caldwell +21
The Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber (DMTPC) experiment uses CF_4 gas at low pressure (0.1 atm) to search for the directional signature of Galactic WIMP dark matter. We describe…
First Dark Matter Search Results from a Surface Run of the 10-L DMTPC Directional Dark Matter Detector
S. Ahlen, J. B. R. Battat, T. Caldwell +21
The Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber (DMTPC) is a low pressure (75 Torr CF4) 10 liter detector capable of measuring the vector direction of nuclear recoils with the goal of dire…
The case for a directional dark matter detector and the status of current experimental efforts
S. Ahlen, N. Afshordi, J. B. R. Battat +109
We present the case for a dark matter detector with directional sensitivity. This document was developed at the 2009 CYGNUS workshop on directional dark matter detection, and conta…
DMTPC-10L: Direction-Sensitive Dark Matter Detector Prototype
D. Dujmic, P. Fisher, R. Lanza +13
The known direction of motion of dark matter particles relative to the Earth may be a key for their unambiguous identification even in the presence of backgrounds. We describe a pr…
