1 WIMP: direct and indirect detection Results and perspectives G. Gerbier CEA/Saclay, DAPNIA LSM (Fréjus Lab) - Introduction for -not so- pedestrians - Summary of direct detection exp status : few focus on some exp. issues / news - What «indirect» detection brings in the game : complementarity - Perspectives G Gerbier NOON 2004 Tokyo- Feb 14th 1

2 Cosmological constraints after WMAP Ω tot = 1.00 ± 0.02 Ω baryon = ± Ω matter 0.3 Ω Λ 0.7 Ω ν < 0.01 ο Σ mν < 1-2 ev Need for «invisible» matter at all scales G Gerbier NOON 2004 Tokyo- Feb 14th 2

3 At local galactic scale - can it be non luminous stars? No G Gerbier NOON 2004 Tokyo- Feb 14th 3

4 A galactic halo of dark matter -SUSY provides a large class of «MSSM» (5 free parameters) with Ω χ ~ 0.3 => -Axion also good candidate : not subject of this talk -«Rotation curve» provides the local density -«direct»detection by «table top» expts -«Indirect» detection of annililation products G Gerbier NOON 2004 Tokyo- Feb 14th 4

5 Wimp direct detection experiments (underground sites mandatory) CDMS (Soudan) ZEPLIN-II -III XENON CryoArray MAJORANA ZEPLIN, NaIAD, DRIFT (Boulby) IGEX ROSEBUD ANAIS (Canfranc) EDELWEISS (Fréjus) CRESST, HDMS/GENIUS DAMA/LIBRA CUORICINO/CUORE (Gran Sasso) KIMS (YY) ELEGANTS, LiF XMASS (SK) G Gerbier NOON 2004 Tokyo- Feb 14th 5

6 WIMP identification, signatures Nuclear (NOT electron) recoil at kev energies Annual modulation of event rate: Maxwell velocity distribution of WIMPs in non-rotating halo superimposed with rotation of galaxy and motion of Earth around the sun modulation of WIMP flux max. 7% expected Will soon require > 1 ton target Directionality of recoil nucleus: diurnal modulation of recoil direction due to Earth s rotation record track of recoil nucleus in low pressure gas target G Gerbier NOON 2004 Tokyo- Feb 14th 6

34 Illustration : muons coming from earth or sun - NB : need a model for halo and annililation of WIMPs to compare with direct detection : standard halo + MSSM = interplay between direct and indirect =>SK/ANTARES are more efficient than EDW for rejecting some MSSM models dominated by SD coupling (Sun is proton rich) G Gerbier NOON 2004 Tokyo- Feb 14th 34

37 Conclusions Dark Matter needed Cold Dark Matter favoured Neutrinos and MACHO s are small fraction of it SUSY χ «best» candidate Direct detection WIMP experiments (EDELWEISS, CDMS, and soon ZEPLIN) sensitive to optimistic- SUSY models ( 10-6 pbarn) DAMA candidate still seen Next generation experiments (in 10 to 100 kg scale) might allow factor improvement in sensitivity (10-8 pbarn), and begin to test more realistic models Testing the bulk of SUSY parameter space (down to pbarn) will require experiments in the one-ton range and extreme background rejection Indirect detection is complementary (spin-dependent couplings for v s), but hardly competitive for low σ scalar interactions models Together with LHC, direct and indirect detection experiments should allow to pinpoint WIMP DM An axion signal could change the game G Gerbier NOON 2004 Tokyo- Feb 14th 37
