TL;DR: A reanalysis of data from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS II) experiment using eight germanium detectors is reanalyzed with a lowered, 2 keV recoil-energy threshold to give increased sensitivity to interactions from weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) with masses below ∼10 GeV/c(2).

TL;DR: This Letter presents WIMP-search results using a calorimetric technique the authors call CDMSlite, which relies on voltage-assisted Luke-Neganov amplification of the ionization energy deposited by particle interactions to constrain new WIMp-nucleon spin-independent parameter space for W IMP masses below 6 GeV/c2.

TL;DR: SuperCDMS SNOLAB as discussed by the authors is a next-generation experiment aimed at directly detecting low-mass particles (with masses ≤ 10 GeV/c^2) that may constitute dark matter by using cryogenic detectors of two types (HV and iZIP) and two target materials (germanium and silicon).
