用重过热液滴探测器探测自旋无关的WIMP暗物质

Heavy Superheated Droplet Detectors as a Probe of Spin-independent WIMP Dark Matter Existence

F. Giuliani, T. Morlat, T. A. Girard

摘要:

目前,过热液滴探测器(SDDs)在WIMP暗物质研究中的应用仅限于自旋相关领域,这是由于普遍使用具有高自旋灵敏度的氟化制冷剂。鉴于他们最近展示了一个显着的约束能力,相对较小的曝光和相对经济的技术,我们认为这种设备的自旋独立部门的重型版本的潜在影响。根据SIMPLE和PICASSO实验已经达到的放射性纯度水平和背景,估计了从$\mathrm{CF_{3}I}$加载喷雾干燥分散剂中获得的限度。在34 kgd暴露下,相当于当前的CDMS,这样的装置在自旋无关截面中可能已经探测到低于10 $^{-6}$ pb。

英文摘要:

At present, application of Superheated Droplet Detectors (SDDs) in WIMP dark matter searches has been limited to the spin-dependent sector, owing to the general use of fluorinated refrigerants which have high spin sensitivity. Given their recent demonstration of a significant constraint capability with relatively small exposures and the relative economy of the technique, we consider the potential impact of heavy versions of such devices on the spin-independent sector. Limits obtainable from a $\mathrm{CF_{3}I}$-loaded SDD are estimated on the basis of the radiopurity levels and backgrounds already achieved by the SIMPLE and PICASSO experiments. With 34 kgd exposure, equivalent to the current CDMS, such a device may already probe to below 10$^{-6}$ pb in the spin-independent cross section.
