SUMMARY:Neil Spooner (Univ. of Sheffield) " Galactic Signatures and Directional Detection of Particle Dark Matter - the CYGNUS Project and Probing below the Neutrino Floor”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nI’ll briefly review the arguments for and status of particle dark matter searches and then focus on the possibility of looking for a definitive galactic signature.  There have been several hints for WIMP dark matter over the years\, most notably the DAM/LIBRE annual modulation result.  There are new efforts to study this\, for instance DM-ICE.  I’ll describe the efforts and latest results then focus on prospects for a directional signal using gas Time Projection Chamber technology including the new CYGNUS global collaboration aiming to deploy targets at multiple latitudes deep underground.
