Limits on Low-Mass WIMP Dark Matter with an Ultra-Low-Energy Germanium Detector at 220 eV Threshold
The theme of the TEXONO research program is on the studies of low energy neutrino and dark matter physics. The current goals of the TEXONO research program are on the development of germanium detectors with sub-keV sensitivities to realize experiments on neutrino magnetic moments, neutrino-nucleus coherent scattering, as well as WIMP dark matter searches. An energy threshold of 220 eV was achie...
متن کاملSearch for an annual modulation in a p-type Point Contact germanium dark matter detector.
Fifteen months of cumulative CoGeNT data are examined for indications of an annual modulation, a predicted signature of weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) interactions. Presently available data support the presence of a modulated component of unknown origin, with parameters prima facie compatible with a galactic halo composed of light-mass WIMPs. Unoptimized estimators yield a statistic...
متن کاملLarge-mass ultralow noise germanium detectors: performance and applications in neutrino and astroparticle physics
A new type of radiation detector, a p-type modified electrode germanium diode, is presented. It is shown that the prototype displays, for the first time, a combination of features (mass, energy threshold and background expectation) required for a measurement of coherent neutrino–nucleus scattering in a nuclear reactor experiment. First results are presented from its calibration using sub-kiloel...
متن کاملImproved Constraints on Wimps from the International Germanium Experiment Igex
One IGEX Ge double-beta decay detector is currently operating in the Canfranc Underground Laboratory in a search for dark matter WIMPs, through the Ge nuclear recoil produced by the WIMP elastic scattering. A new exclusion plot, σ(m), has been derived for WIMP-nucleon spin-independent interactions. To obtain this result, 40 days of data from the IGEX detector (energy threshold Ethr ∼ 4 keV), re...
متن کاملNew Constraints on Wimps from the Canfranc Igex Dark Matter Search
The IGEX Collaboration enriched Ge double-beta decay detectors are currently operating in the Canfranc Underground Laboratory with an overburden of 2450 m.w.e. A recent upgrade has made it possible to use them in a search for WIMPs. A new exclusion plot, σ(m), has been derived for WIMP-nucleon spin-independent interaction. To obtain this result, 30 days of data from one IGEX detector, which has...
