The Korea Invisible Mass Search (KIMS) collaboration has been carrying out WIMP search experiment with CsI(Tl) crystal detectors at the YangYang Underground Laboratory. A successful reduction of the internal background of the crystal was done and a good pulse shape discrimination was achieved. We report the first result on WIMP search obtained with 237 kg·days data using one full-size CsI(Tl) c...

*Correspondence: [email protected] Department of Basic Sciences, Faculty of Engineering, Kyushu Institute of Technology, Tobata, Kitakyushu 804-8550, Japan Abstract We give characterizations of the contractive conditions, by using convergent sequences. Since we use a unified method, we can compare the contractive conditions very easily. We also discuss the contractive conditions of int...
