TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the data collected with eight detector modules, each with a two-channel readout; one for a phonon signal and the other for coincidently produced scintillation light.

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.

Colloquium: Annual modulation of dark matter
TL;DR: A review of the physics of direct detection of dark matter, discussing the roles of both the particle physics and astrophysics in the expected signals, is given in this article, where the authors discuss the practical formulas needed to interpret a modulating signal.

Galactic Searches for Dark Matter
TL;DR: For nearly a century, more mass has been measured in galaxies than is contained in the luminous stars and gas as discussed by the authors, and it has become clear that the dark matter in galaxies is not comprised of known astronomical objects or baryonic matter.

TL;DR: In this article, a combination of seven-year data from WMAP and improved astrophysical data rigorously tests the standard cosmological model and places new constraints on its basic parameters and extensions.

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.
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.

TL;DR: It is considered the possibility that the neutral-current neutrino detector recently proposed by Drukier and Stodolsky could be used to detect some possible candidates for the dark matter in galactic halos.
