Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber: Recent R&D Results

J. B. R. Battat, S. Ahlen, M. Chernicoff +14

The Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber collaboration recently reported a dark matter limit obtained with a 10 liter time projection chamber filled with CF4 gas. The 10 liter detec…

DMTPC: A dark matter detector with directional sensitivity

J. B. R. Battat, S. Ahlen, T. Caldwell +18

By correlating nuclear recoil directions with the Earth's direction of motion through the Galaxy, a directional dark matter detector can unambiguously detect Weakly Interacting Mas…

Toward directional detection of Dark Matter with the DM-TPC detector

G. Sciolla, S. Ahlen, D. Dujmic +13

Directional detection can provide unambiguous observation of Dark Matter interactions even in presence of insidious backgrounds. The DM-TPC collaboration is developing a detector w…
