Motion of the Earth and the detection of weakly interacting massive particles
TLDR
The angular dependence and the amplitude of the seasonal modulation for an isothermal halo model is calculated and it is shown that Earth's motion relative to the galactic halo produces a seasonal modulation in the expected event rate.Abstract:
If the galactic halo is composed of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMP's), then cryogenic experiments may be capable of detecting the recoil of nuclei struck by the WIMP's. Earth's motion relative to the galactic halo produces a seasonal modulation in the expected event rate. The direction of nuclear recoil has a strong angular dependence that also can be used to confirm the detection of WIMP's. I calculate the angular dependence and the amplitude of the seasonal modulation for an isothermal halo model.read more

Supersymmetric Dark Matter
TL;DR: In this article, the neutralino is proposed as the lightest superpartner in many supersymmetric theories, and it is shown how to calculate the cosmological abundance of neutralino and event rates for both direct and indirect detection schemes.
