The TREX-DM experiment at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory

J Castel, S Cebrián, T Dafni +8

TREX-DM (TPC Rare Event eXperiment for Dark Matter) is intended to look for low mass WIMPs in the Canfranc Underground Laboratory (LSC) in Spain, using light elements (Ne, Ar) as t…

Status of the TREX-DM experiment at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory

F Aznar, J Castel, S Cebrian +11

The TREX-DM experiment is conceived to look for low mass WIMPs by means of a gas time projection chamber equipped with novel micromegas readout planes at the Canfranc Underground L…

Micromegas for dark matter searches: CAST/IAXO & TREX-DM

J. G. Garza, S. Aune, J. F. Castel +14

The most compelling candidates for Dark Matter to day are WIMPs and axions. The applicability of gasesous Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) with Micromesh Gas Structures (Micromegas)…

TREX-DM: a low background Micromegas-based TPC for low-mass WIMP detection

F. J. Iguaz, J. G. Garza, F. Aznar +8

Dark Matter experiments are recently focusing their detection techniques in low-mass WIMPs, which requires the use of light elements and low energy threshold. In this context, we d…

TREX-DM: a low-background Micromegas-based TPC for low-mass WIMP detection

F. J. Iguaz, J. G. Garza, F. Aznar +8

If Dark Matter is made of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) with masses below 20 GeV, the corresponding nuclear recoils in mainstream WIMP experiments are of energ…
