58 Summary Summary Direct Dark Matter detection searches for WIMP particles. Direct detection experiments aim to observe WIMP-nucleus scattering signals. Theoretical models predict WIMP candidates. Phenomenological data analyses would exclude/constrain the parameter space and even extract WIMP properties. Our data analysis procedures could extract WIMP properties model-independently by combining data sets with different detector materials. C.-L. Shan, AS IoP BUT, September 19, 2012, p. 57

59 Summary Summary These information will help us to distinguish the (neutralino) LSP from the LKP [G. Bertone et al., PRL 99, (2007); V. Barger et al., PRD 78, (2008); G. Belanger et al., PRD 79, (2009); R. C. Cotta et al., NJP 11, (2009)] identify the particle produced at colliders to be indeed halo WIMPs predict the WIMP annihilation cross section σ anni v Furthermore, we could determine the local WIMP density ρ 0 predict the indirect detection event rate dφ/de test our understanding of the early Universe...
