Search for light dark matter with NEWS-G

Original language description

The NEWS-G collaboration is searching for light dark matter candidates using a spherical proportional counter. Light gases, such as hydrogen, helium, and neon, are used as targets, providing access in the 0.1-10 GeV mass range. First results obtained with SEDINE, a 60 cm in diameter detector, in the Underground Laboratory of Modane yielded a 90% confidence level upper limit of 4.4 . 10(37) cm(2) on the nucleon-dark matter interaction cross-section for a candidate with 0.5 GeV mass. Recent developments in several aspects of the detector instrumentation are presented, along with the construction of a new, 140 cm in diameter, detector with new compact shielding.
