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 …

Recoil imaging entails the detection of spatially resolved ionization tracks generated by
particle interactions. This is a highly sought-after capability in many classes of detector, with …

The search for weakly-interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter is multi-pronged.
Ultimately, the WIMP-dark-matter picture will only be confirmed if different classes of …

Directional detection of Galactic Dark Matter is a promising search strategy for discriminating
WIMP events from background. Technical progress on gaseous detectors and read-outs has …

The DAMA/LIBRA Collaboration has detected an annual modulation of the recoil rate in NaI
crystals with the phase expected for weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) scattering …

The amount of energy released by a nuclear recoil ionizing the atoms of the active volume of
detection appears “quenched” compared to an electron of the same kinetic energy. This …

Direct detection experiments have reached the sensitivity to detect dark matter weakly
interacting massive particles (WIMPs). Demonstrating that a putative signal is due to WIMPs …

Secondary scintillation (defined here as photon emission originating from electron
avalanches) was studied for two gaseous micropattern detectors: MSGC (MicroStrip Gas …

Directional detection is the only strategy for the unambiguous identification of galactic Dark
Matter (DM) even in the presence of an irreducible background such as beyond the neutrino …
