DM-Ice: a Direct Detection Experiment for Dark Matter at the South Pole ...
I will describe DM-Ice, a direct detection dark matter experiment at the South Pole. The aim of the experiment is to test the claim for an observation of dark matter by the DAMA collaboration by carrying out an experiment with the same detector technology, but in the southern hemisphere. By going to...

I will describe DM-Ice, a direct detection dark matter experiment at the South Pole.
