Direct Detection Principle

WIMP

from galactic halo

Target Nucleus

in laboratory

v~220 km/s v~0 km/s ER~30 keVr θR WIMP Elastic collision

Detection of the energy deposited due to elastic scattering off target nuclei

  • Elastic scattering of a WIMP deposits small

amount of energy into recoiling nucleus 
 (~ few 10s of keV)

  • Expected rate: 


< 0.1 interaction per ton per day
 (7.6 x 10-46 cm2 for mχ = 33 GeV)

  • Radioactive background of most materials

gives higher rate

  • Event ID from measurements of ionization and

phonon energies

  • Total fiducial exposure : 113 kg.d
  • 3 evts observed in the WIMP box 


(one event for Mχ = 10 GeV)

  • Estimated background (5-20 keV):

Neutron < 1.7 evt, most probable 1.0 evt
 (based on Monte-Carlo + activity meas.) Gamma < 1.2 evt

  • Limits on σSI derived from Poisson


statistics

  • Significantly extends EDW limits 


for Mχ = 7-30 GeV

Goal: 10-45 cm2 with FID800 (24 kg fiducial)

  • Improved material selection
  • Extra internal PE shield:


ca.10 cm below bolometers


  • ca. 5 cm around and on top
  • Upgrades of muon veto, cryogenics, 


cabling, thermal screens

  • Modify electronics and DAQ (scalability): 


360 channels + auxiliary detectors

  • New event-based readout
  • More analysis tools:

Kdata: ROOT-based, multi-tier, db, …
