Journal ArticleDOI
Review of mathematics, numerical factors, and corrections for dark matter experiments based on elastic nuclear recoil
J.D. Lewin,P.F. Smith +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a systematic derivation and discussion of the practical formulae needed to design and interpret direct searches for nuclear recoil events caused by hypothetical weakly interacting dark matter particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dark matter detection
P.F. Smith,J.D. Lewin +1 more
TL;DR: There is increasing interest in the possibility of setting up terrestrial experiments for the direct detection of galactic dark matter on the hypothesis that this may consist of new types of elementary particle as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The first underground data run of ZEPLIN-II, a 31 kg two-phase xenon detector developed to observe nuclear recoils from hypothetical weakly interacting massive dark matter particles, was reported in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
A search for anomalous hydrogen in enriched D2O, using a time-of-flight spectrometer
TL;DR: In this article, a mass spectrometer search for heavy hydrogen-like atoms in an enriched D2O sample produced by the electrolysis of 6×103l commercial D 2O, the latter manufactured from 1.2×108l natural water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved dark matter limits from pulse shape discrimination in a low background sodium iodide detector at the Boulby mine
P.F. Smith,G.T.J. Arnison,G.J. Homer,J.D. Lewin,G. J. Alner,N. J. C. Spooner,J. J. Quenby,T. J. Sumner,A. Bewick,J.P. Li,D. Shaul,T. Ali,W. G. Jones,N. J. T. Smith,G.J. Davies,C.H. Lally,M.J. van den Putte,J. C. Barton,P.R. Blake +18 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported new limits on nuclear scattering events resulting from galactic dark matter in the form of hypothetical weakly interacting massive particles. But their limits were not applicable to the Gaussian regime.
