    Dark Matter Direct Searches
    Talk
    The CRESST experiment is a Dark Matter search using calcium tungstate cryogenic detectors. Background discrimination is achieved by the simultaneous detection of scintillation light and phonons. Results of the last year of data taking are presented.

    Dark Matter Direct Searches
    Talk
    The XENON100 dark matter experiment, installed in the Laboratory Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS, Italy), is searching for WIMP dark matter particles scattering off a 62 kg liquid xenon target in a dual phase (liquid/gas) time projection chamber. Careful material selection, a novel detector design, and an upgrade of the passive shield, together with capitalizing the self-shielding power of...

    Dark Matter Direct Searches
    Talk
    The axion is a hypothetical elementary particle whose existence would explain the baffling absence of CP violation in the strong interactions. It's properties make it a good dark-matter candidate. Even though dark-matter axions would make up the overwhelming majority of mass in the universe, they are extraordinarily difficult to detect. However, by threading a high-Q microwave cavity...
