EDELWEISS-II实验的现状

Status of the EDELWEISS-II experiment

Véronique Sanglard

摘要:

EDELWEISS是位于Modane地下实验室低放射性环境中的直接暗物质搜索实验。该实验使用Ge探测器在非常低的温度,以确定最终罕见的核反冲引起的弹性散射的WIMP从我们的星系晕。我们目前的实验,涉及超过7公斤的锗,已于2007年完成的第二阶段的调试结果。我们描述了两种新类型的探测器与主动拒绝的事件,由于表面污染。为了实现当前相位10-8 pb横截面测量的物理目标,需要这种有源抑制。

英文摘要:

EDELWEISS is a direct dark matter search experiment situated in the low radioactivity environment of the Modane Underground Laboratory. The experiment uses Ge detectors at very low temperature in order to identify eventual rare nuclear recoils induced by elastic scattering of WIMPs from our Galactic halo. We present results of the commissioning of the second phase of the experiment, involving more than 7 kg of Ge, that has been completed in 2007. We describe two new types of detectors with active rejection of events due to surface contamination. This active rejection is required in order to achieve the physics goals of 10-8 pb cross-section measurement for the current phase.
