Dark matter search at Boulby Mine

1999

A status report of the UK Dark Matter Search at Boulby mine is presented. We plan to continue the search for WIMPs using pulse shape discrimination in NaI crystals as well as expanding the programme to include Xe as a dark matter target. Xe o ers a more powerful means of background rejection than can be achieved by pulse shape discrimination in NaI.
