  1. 97. Dark matter: the MiMac project
    Mr Cyril Grignon (LPSC)
    3/11/09, 5:00 PM
  2. 69. Review of direct searches of dark matters and status of EdelweissII
    Prof. Jules Gascon (Universite de Lyon, Universite Lyon 1, CNRS/IN2P3)
    3/11/09, 5:15 PM
    I will review the experimental status in the domain of direct searches for Dark Matter and present future prospects.

  3. 22. Solar system dark matter and constraints
    Dr Stephen Adler (Institute for Advanced Study)
    3/11/09, 5:40 PM
    I review constraints on solar system-bound dark matter, and discuss the possibility that dark matter could be gravitationally bound to the earth and other planets. I briefly survey various empirical constraints on such planet-bound dark matter, and discuss effects it could produce if present, including anomalous planetary heating and flyby velocity changes.

  4. 11. Solar system dark matter and simulations
    Dr Annika Peter (California Institute of Technology)
    3/11/09, 6:05 PM
    One method to search for particle dark matter is to hunt down its annihilation products. A goal of the next generation of neutrino telescopes is to find, or better constrain, dark matter by looking for a neutrino flux from dark matter annihilation in the Sun and the Earth. Signals from both sources depend not only on the details of the dark matter model, but on the dynamics of dark matter...

  5. 4. Particle Dark Matter in the galactic halo: results from DAMA/LIBRA
    Dr Riccardo Cerulli (INFN-LNGS)
    3/11/09, 6:45 PM
    The highly radiopure DAMA/LIBRA set-up (about 250 kg highly radiopure NaI(Tl) sensitive mass) is running at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory of the I.N.F.N..The presented results have been obtained - with an exposure of 0.53 ton x yr - by exploiting the model independent annual modulation signature for Dark Matter particles in the galactic halo. The DAMA/LIBRA data confirm the evidence...

  6. 30. Dark matter in view of recent experiments
    Ms Kathryn Zurek (FNAL, USA)
    3/11/09, 7:05 PM
    Recent results from direct and indirect detection of dark matter experiments may be giving early clues to the nature of the dark matter. I review these results and discuss the implications for models of electroweak scale dark matter.
