Supersymmetric dark matter search via spin-dependent interaction with He3

Astrophysics 2011-07-19 v1

Abstract

The potentialities of MIMAC-He3, a MIcro-tpc MAtrix of Chambers of Helium 3, for supersymmetric dark matter search are discussed within the framework of effective MSSM models without gaugino mass unification at the GUT scale. A phenomenological study has been done to investigate the sensitivity of the MIMAC-He3 detector to neutralinos (m > 6 GeV/c2) via spin-dependent interaction with He3 as well as its complementarity to direct and indirect detection experiments. Comparison with other direct dark matter searches will be presented in a WIMP model-independent framework.
