Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have been promoting a directional dark matter detection experiment using super fine grain nuclear emulsion (NIT). Development of low BG NIT, of high resolution read-out system to detect ~100nm long recoil tracks, evaluation of the dependence of the detection efficiency on the recoil energy have been performed. It is concluded that the sensitivity of 10kg NIT will cover the parameter region claimed by the DAMA/LIBRA experiment. Letter of Intent has been submitted to LNGS Science Committee, and accepted as a test experiment named NEWSdm. Experimental area at the underground laboratory has been specified , and Pilot run and BG measurement run has been performing in the specified zone.
