Direct Detection of Nonbaryonic Dark Matter

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are leading candidates for the dominant part of the mass density of the Universe. Here we will review direct WIMP detection techniques by giving examples of currently running experiments, and present the status of the most promising future projects.
