Direct detection of WIMP dark matter: concepts and status
TL;DR: In this article, the concepts of direct detection of dark matter in the form of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) in ultra-sensitive detectors located in underground laboratories are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dark matter direct-detection experiments
TL;DR: In this paper, the status of direct dark matter searches is summarized, focusing on the detector technologies used to directly detect a dark matter particle producing recoil energies in the keV energy scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current status of direct dark matter detection experiments
TL;DR: Recently, direct dark matter searches are pushing the limits on the scattering of weakly interacting massive particles on normal matter so WIMPs are running out of places to hide as discussed by the authors.

The Structure of cold dark matter halos
TL;DR: In this article, high-resolution N-body simulations show that the density profiles of dark matter halos formed in the standard CDM cosmogony can be fit accurately by scaling a simple universal profile.

Particle dark matter: Evidence, candidates and constraints
TL;DR: The current status of particle dark matter, including experimental evidence and theoretical motivations, including direct and indirect detection techniques, is discussed in this paper. But the authors focus on neutralinos in models of supersymmetry and Kaluza-Klein dark matter in universal extra dimensions.

Asymptotic formulae for likelihood-based tests of new physics
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe likelihood-based statistical tests for use in high energy physics for the discovery of new phenomena and for construction of confidence intervals on model parameters, focusing on the properties of the test procedures that allow one to account for systematic uncertainties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supersymmetric Dark Matter
TL;DR: In this article, the neutralino is considered as a superpartner in many supersymmetric theories, and the cosmological abundance of neutralino and the event rates for both direct and indirect detection schemes are discussed.
