TL;DR: The case for a dark matter detector with directional sensitivity was presented at the 2009 CYGNUS workshop on directional dark matter detection, and contributions from theorists and experimental groups in the field as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the discovery reach of directional Dark Matter detection
F. Mayet,Anne M. Green,James Battat,J. Billard,Nassim Bozorgnia,Graciela B. Gelmini,Paolo Gondolo,Bradley J. Kavanagh,Bradley J. Kavanagh,Samuel K. Lee,Samuel K. Lee,D. Loomba,Jocelyn Monroe,B. Morgan,Ciaran A. J. O'Hare,Annika H. G. Peter,N. Phan,S. E. Vahsen +17 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the potential of directional detectors for detecting and characterizing WIMPs and present a powerful tool for demonstrating the Galactic origin of nuclear recoils and hence unambiguously detecting Dark Matter.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied the z-fiducialization technique to a directional dark matter search and achieved the first background-free operation of a directional detector, achieving a 1.1 pb exclusion curve for spin-dependent WIMP-proton interactions at 100GeV/c2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spin-dependent limits from the DRIFT-IId directional dark matter detector
E. J. Daw,J. R. Fox,J.-L. Gauvreau,C. Ghag,L. J. Harmon,Michael Gold,E. R. Lee,D. Loomba,E. H. Miller,A. St. J. Murphy,Sean Paling,J. M. Landers,M. Pipe,K. Pushkin,Matthew R. Robinson,D. P. Snowden-Ifft,N. J. C. Spooner,David Walker +17 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the DRIFT-IId detector operated in the Boulby Underground Science Facility in England for a duration of 47.4 live-time days with sufficient passive shielding to provide a neutron free environment within the detector.
