Drift:. a Dark Matter Detector with Directional Sensitivity
Abstract
The DRIFT detector is the first WIMP dark matter detector capable of measuring the directions of nuclear recoils. This article discusses the advantages of a directional detector, the first operational detector (DRIFT-I), and research into a new optical readout system.
