A Search for Dark Matter Using Cryogenic Detectors (cdms)
The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search experiment uses germanium and silicon detectors cooled to cryogenic temperatures in a direct search for weakly-interacting massive particles in our Galaxy. The novel detectors allow a high degree of background rejection by discriminating between electron and nuclear recoils through the simultaneous measurement of the energy deposited in phonons (heat) and ioniza...

متن کاملDevelopment of cryogenic phonon detectors based on CaMoO4 and ZnWO4 scintillating crystals for direct dark matter search experiments
This work reports on the development of the first phonon detectors based on CaMoO4 and ZnWO4 scintillating crystals for the CRESST-II experiment. In particular, a novel technique for the production of the ZnWO4 phonon detector with a separate thermometer carrier was investigated. The influence of the thermal and mechanical treatment on the scintillation light output of CaMoO4 and ZnWO4 crystals...
متن کاملDark matter detection with cryogenic detectors
Direct detection of dark matter in the form of Weakly-Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPS) is an active field of research. Cryogenic detectors have been in the forefront of the field, due to their exquisite ability to reject backgrounds from interactions of normal matter. In this paper, I describe the current status and future prospects for such experiments. 1. The landscape of dark matter dir...
متن کاملThermal detector model for cryogenic composite detectors for the dark matter experiments CRESST and EURECA
The CRESST (Cryogenic Rare Event Search with Superconducting Thermometers) and the EURECA (European Underground Rare Event Calorimeter Array) experiments are direct dark matter search experiments where cryogenic detectors are used to detect spin-independent, coherent WIMP (Weakly Interacting Massive Particle)-nucleon scattering events by means of the recoil energy. The cryogenic detectors use a...
