21 Feb 2000 | Journal: | Phys.Lett. B489 (2000) 268-272 | Subject: | hep-ex astro-ph hep-ph | Affiliation: | Zaragoza U., South Carolina U., Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Richland Inst. of Theor. and Exp. Physics, Moscow, Baksan Neutrino Observ., Yerevan U. | Abstract: | The IGEX Collaboration enriched 76Ge double-beta decay detectors are currently operating in the Canfranc Underground Laboratory with an overburden of 2450 m.w.e. A recent upgrade has made it possible to use them in a search for WIMPs. A new exclusion plot has been derived for WIMP-nucleon spin-independent interaction. To obtain this result, 30 days of data from one IGEX detector, which has an energy threshold of ~4 keV, have been considered. These data improve the exclusion limits derived from other germanium diode experiments in the ~50 GeV DAMA region, and show that with a moderate improvement of the background below 10 keV, the DAMA region may be tested with an additional 1 kg-year of exposure. | Source: | arXiv, hep-ex/0002053 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
