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…
