Search for An Annual Modulation in Three Years of CoGeNT Dark Matter Detector Data

C. E. Aalseth, P. S. Barbeau, J. Colaresi +12

Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are well-established dark matter candidates. WIMP interactions with sensitive detectors are expected to display a characteristic annual…

Maximum Likelihood Signal Extraction Method Applied to 3.4 years of CoGeNT Data

C. E. Aalseth, P. S. Barbeau, J. Diaz Leon +8

CoGeNT has taken data for over 3 years, with 1136 live days of data accumulated as of April 23, 2013. We report on the results of a maximum likelihood analysis to extract any possi…

CoGeNT: A Search for Low-Mass Dark Matter using p-type Point Contact Germanium Detectors

C. E. Aalseth, P. S. Barbeau, J. Colaresi +12

CoGeNT employs p-type point-contact (PPC) germanium detectors to search for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). By virtue of its low energy threshold and ability to rejec…

Search for an Annual Modulation in a P-type Point Contact Germanium Dark Matter Detector

C. E. Aalseth, P. S. Barbeau, J. Colaresi +15

Fifteen months of cumulative CoGeNT data are examined for indications of an annual modulation, a predicted signature of Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) interactions. Pre…

Results from a Search for Light-Mass Dark Matter with a P-type Point Contact Germanium Detector

C. E. Aalseth, P. S. Barbeau, N. S. Bowden +24

We report on several features present in the energy spectrum from an ultra low-noise germanium detector operated at 2,100 m.w.e. By implementing a new technique able to reject surf…
