The scintillation and ionization yield of liquid xenon for nuclear recoils
P. Sorensen, A. Manzur, C. E. Dahl +34
XENON10 is an experiment designed to directly detect particle dark matter. It is a dual phase (liquid/gas) xenon time-projection chamber with 3D position imaging. Particle interact…
Limits on spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon cross-sections from the XENON10 experiment
J. Angle, E. Aprile, F. Arneodo +34
XENON10 is an experiment to directly detect weakly interacting massive particle (WIMPs), which may comprise the bulk of the non-baryonic dark matter in our Universe. We report new…
A Search for WIMPs with the First Five-Tower Data from CDMS
CDMS Collaboration
We report first results from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS II) experiment running with its full complement of 30 cryogenic particle detectors at the Soudan Underground Lab…
First Results from the XENON10 Dark Matter Experiment at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory
J. Angle, E. Aprile, F. Arneodo +34
The XENON10 experiment at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory uses a 15 kg xenon dual phase time projection chamber (XeTPC) to search for dark matter weakly interacting massive part…
3D Position Sensitive XeTPC for Dark Matter Search
J. Angle, E. Aprile, F. Arneodo +30
The technique to realize 3D position sensitivity in a two-phase xenon time projection chamber (XeTPC) for dark matter search is described. Results from a prototype detector (XENON3…
Deep Underground Science and Engineering Lab: S1 Dark Matter Working Group

A study of the current status of WIMP dark matter searches has been made in the context of scientific and technical planning for a Deep Underground Science and Engineering Laborato…
Simultaneous Measurement of Ionization and Scintillation from Nuclear Recoils in Liquid Xenon as Target for a Dark Matter Experiment
E. Aprile, C. E. Dahl, L. DeViveiros +7
We report the first measurements of the absolute ionization yield of nuclear recoils in liquid xenon, as a function of energy and electric-field. Independent experiments were carri…
Limits on spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon interactions from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search
CDMS Collaboration
The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) is an experiment to detect weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) based on their interactions with Ge and Si nuclei. We report the res…
