This report provides an extensive review of the experimental programme of direct detection
searches of particle dark matter. It focuses mostly on European efforts, both current and …

Abstract Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are among the best-motivated dark
matter candidates. No conclusive signal, despite an extensive search program that …

We report on the search for dark matter weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) in the
mass range below 10 GeV/c 2, from the analysis of the entire dataset acquired with a low …

Dark matter elastic scattering off nuclei can result in the excitation and ionization of the
recoiling atom through the so-called Migdal effect. The energy deposition from the ionization …

We present the results of a search for dark matter weakly interacting massive particles
(WIMPs) in the mass range below 20 GeV/c 2 using a target of low-radioactivity argon with a …

Building on the successful experience in operating the DarkSide-50 detector, the DarkSide
Collaboration is going to construct DarkSide-20k, a direct WIMP search detector using a two …

In recent decades, several detector technologies have been developed with the quest to
directly detect dark matter interactions and to test one of the most important unsolved …

The CRESST-II experiment uses cryogenic detectors to search for nuclear recoil events
induced by the elastic scattering of dark matter particles in CaWO _4 4 crystals. Given the …

We review scenarios in which the particles that account for the Dark Matter (DM) in the
Universe interact only through their couplings with the Higgs sector of the theory, the so …

We present a search for dark matter particles with sub-GeV/c 2 masses whose interactions
have final state electrons using the DarkSide-50 experiment's (12 306±184) kg d low …
