NEWS-G, a Spherical Proportional Counter with low-Z target to search for sub-GeV Weakly Interacting Particles

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Despite several large-scale direct detection experiments operating worldwide, dark matter remains elusive. Not favoured by supersymmetric theories, the low Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) mass regime (less than few GeV) has been largely ignored. The NEWS-G project builds on the experience gathered with the operation of the SEDINE detector at the Laboratoire Souterrain de Modane (France). The goal is to construct a 140cm diameter low-background Spherical Proportional Counter (SPC) capable of holding up to 10 bar of gas and to be operated at the SNOLAB underground facility (Canada). The use of low-Z target materials such as Ne, He and H, together with a strict selection of low activity materials will provide sensitivity to WIMP masses down to 0.1 GeV/c2. The detector is expected to be deployed in 2018.
