TL;DR: The XENON100 detector, installed underground at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso of INFN, Italy, finds no evidence for dark matter, leading to the most stringent limit on dark matter interactions today.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: First dark matter results from the analysis of 11.17 live days of nonblind data are presented, which constrains the interpretation of the CoGeNT and DAMA signals as being due to spin-independent, elastic, light mass WIMP interactions.

TL;DR: The XENON100 dark matter experiment uses liquid xenon (LXe) in a time projection chamber (TPC) to search for xenon nuclear recoils resulting from the scattering of dark matter Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a statistical model for the detection of dark matter using the profile likelihood ratio as a test statistic in a frequentist approach is presented. But the model is not suitable for the case of the XENON100 experiment.
