Dark Matter Detection

AAPCOS 2015 DARK MATTER DETECTION Viktor Zacek, Université de Montréal Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics October 2015 • Most probably there are 10 Mio DM particles in this room • They swirl around with a speed of 500 000 km/h • About 1012 particles traverse you during this presentation • Nevertheless we do not feel them because they interact super weakly & super rarely Sun • And yet: they dominate the structure and future of the Universe! • …but what is DM and how to detect it ? Lecture I • Evidences for Dark Matter • Present knowledge of the matter content of the Universe • Dark Matter and structure of the Universe • What Dark Matter can and cannot be Lecture II • DM detection – rates and limits • Backgrounds and their mitigation • A guided tour through SNOLAB • Status of direct search experiments Lecture III • Status of indirect search experiments • Accelerator searches • Other candidate searches • Future directions THE DARK MATTER PROBLEM - FIRST INDICATIONS • Studies kinetic energies of 8 galaxies of the Coma Cluster . finds velocities are much larger than expected (virial theorem) Fritz Zwicky, 1937 . apparently Coma cluster contains 200 x more mass than is visible in form of galaxies The “hidden mass” problem becomes a “key problem” of modern cosmology DARK MATTER & GALACTIC ROTATION CURVES v2 GM(r) rot r r 2 Vera Rubin, 1974 1 v r ퟏ 풗 ∝ 풓풐풕 풓 Doppler shift of star light and of HI distribution DARK MATTER & GALACTIC ROTATION CURVES v2 GM(r) rot r r 2 Vera Rubin, 1974 ퟏ 풗 ∝ 풓풐풕 풓 For vrot = ct.
