  1. 1. Neutron Veto Inefficiency Studies with FLUKA for the LDMX Hadronic Calorimeter

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Jaida Raffelsberger; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Dark matter accounts for about 85% of all matter in the Universe, yet its particle nature remains unknown. The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is a proposed fixed-target missing-momentum experiment that intends to probe the predominantly experimentally uncharted MeV-GeV mass range for "light dark matter".

  3. 2. Review of astrophysical probes of dark matter

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Gabriella Szabó; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Research on dark matter has been ongoing for almost a century. Findings show that dark matter makes up 27% of the universe’s density and thus it is a crucial component of understanding how the universe came about. This thesis describes the key pieces of evidence for the existence of dark matter and its properties. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Dark Matter – Direct Detection and Capture in the Sun

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Fysik

    Författare :Erika Lind; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Dark matter; direct detection; indirect detection; solar capture; inelastic dark matter; Mörk materia; direkt detektion; indirekt detektion; solinfångning; inelastisk mörk materia;

    Sammanfattning : Dark matter has been inferred from various observations such as in galaxy clusters, flat galactic rotation curves, gravitational lensing measurements and the cosmic microwave background. Despite overwhelming observational evidence and ongoing searches, a clear signal of dark matter has not yet been detected. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Probing the effect of dark matter velocity distributions on neutrino-based dark matter detection

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Författare :Martin Ståhl; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Dark matter; WIMPs; velocity distribution; indirect detection;

    Sammanfattning : Dark matter has a long history, but it was not until modern times that we have a chance of detecting it. This thesis focuses on the velocity distribution and its effect on indirect WIMP detection. Recently a new velocity distribution, based on data from SDSS and GAIA, was proposed. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Simulation of Dark Matter Using micrOMEGAs

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Teoretisk fysik

    Författare :Nikolaos Kalkitsas; Thom Jäderlund; [2015]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Weakly interactive massive particles (WIMPs) are one of the most popular dark matter candidates and in our study we have decided on a WIMP based model due to its accurate predictions of the dark matter (DM) relic density. To determine a possible WIMP, we have used the minimal supersymmetric model (MSSM), an extension of superymmetry (SUSY). LÄS MER
