The DAMIC-M experiment: scientific results from prototype detector and development status.

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The DAMIC-M experiment aims at the direct detection of dark matter particle candidates with sub electron resolution Charge Coupled Devices (CCD). The low energy threshold of a few eV and fine spatial resolution of these so-called skipper CCDs make them a competitive target to search for low mass dark matter candidate. DAMIC-M will search for low mass WIMPs (<5GeV/c2) through the nuclear recoil they would induce on silicon nuclei but will also probe much lighter candidate such as particles of the hidden sector through the electronic recoil they would provoke. DAMIC-M in its final stage will comprise 52 CCD modules for a total target mass of around 700 grams and a radioactive background goal of less than 1 event/keV/kg/day. It will be installed in the Modane Underground Laboratory (LSM) in France in 2024. A prototype detector with 18 grams of target mass, the Low Background Chamber (LBC), has been successfully installed and commissioned in 2022 at LSM and is already giving world leading results in the search for leptophilic dark matter. We present the first scientific results obtained with the LBC and the status of the development of final DAMIC-M detector.
