Signals from the Universe: from DAMA/NaI to DAMA/LIBRA
Antonella Incicchitti (INFN - Sezione di Roma)
Seminar Room 3, 15:00
The highly radiopure about 250 kg NaI(Tl) DAMA/LIBRA set-up is
running at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory of the I.N.F.N..
Results exploiting the model independent annual modulation
signature for Dark Matter particles in the galactic halo are
presented (exposure of 0.53 ton × yr). The DAMA/LIBRA data
confirm the evidence for the presence of Dark Matter particles
in the galactic halo as observed by the former DAMA/NaI experiment.
The combined analysis of the data of the two experiments
(total exposure 0.82 ton × yr) gives a C.L. at 8.2 σ.
