Experimental observations and theoretical arguments at galactic and larger scales pointed
out that a large fraction of the Universe is composed of Dark Matter (DM) particles. This has …

Searches for dark matter–induced recoils have made impressive advances in the last few
years. Yet the field is confronted by several outstanding problems. First, the inevitable …

Now that conventional weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter searches are
approaching the neutrino floor, there has been a resurgence of interest in detectors with …

Inorganic crystal scintillators play a crucial role in particle detection for various applications
in fundamental physics and applied science. The use of such materials as scintillating …

Experimental observations and theoretical arguments at Galaxy and larger scales have
suggested that a large fraction of the Universe is composed by Dark Matter particles. This …

We present results from a 54.7 live-day shielded run of the DRIFT-IId detector, the world's
most sensitive, directional, dark matter detector. Several improvements were made relative …

The neutrino floor is a barrier in the parameter space of weakly interacting massive particles
(WIMPs) below which discovery is impeded due to an almost irreducible background of …

The addition of O 2 to gas mixtures in time projection chambers containing CS 2 has recently
been shown to produce multiple negative ions that travel at slightly different velocities. This …

Next-generation dark matter (DM) detectors searching for weakly interacting massive
particles (WIMPs) will be sensitive to coherent scattering from solar neutrinos, demanding an …

Modern particle physics experiments call for high performance scintillation detectors with
unique properties: radiation-resistant in high energy and astrophysics, highly radiopure …
