Direct Dark Matter Searches: Fits to WIMP Candidates

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2011-07-01 v1 Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics

Abstract

After a brief introduction to dark matter in general and to WIMPs as candidates, we review recent results of direct dark matter searches. We concentrate on older and more recent hints pointing to light WIMP's with mass below 10 GeV.
