ANAIS
ANAIS is a particle detector experiment designed to detect dark matter. ANAIS stands for ''Annual modulation with NAI Scintillators''. Its main goal is the direct detection of the dark matter through its scattering off the target nuclei in a radiopure NaI(Tl) crystal. This dark matter signal should be annually modulated by the change in the relative velocity of WIMP-nucleus, a result of the rotation of the Earth around the Sun.
ANAIS is the scaled conclusion of feasibility studies carried out with different prototypes by the University of Zaragoza group at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory, Spain. The complete experiment will use more than one hundred of kg of ultrapure sodium-iodine NaI(Tl) crystals. Data recording began at the end of October 2012 using 25 kg in two prototype detectors as the last step before launching the larger experiment.〔(Update on the ANAIS experiment. ANAIS-0 prototype results at the new Canfranc Underground Laboratory. ), J. Amaré et al, Journal of Physics (Conference Series) 375 (2012) 01202〕〔(Background model for a NaI(Tl) detector devoted to dark matter searches ). S. Cebrián et al, Astropart. Phys. 37 (2012) 6〕 A third detector was installed in 2014〔(ARRIVAL OF THE NEW ULTRAPURE NaI(TI) DECTECTOR FOR ANAIS, LSC )〕 showing a better radiopurity allowing the commissioning of the full experiment expected by mid-2016.〔(J. Amaré et al, Status of the ANAIS Dark Matter Project at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory, Contributed to the 11th Patras Workshop on Axions, WIMPs and WISPs, Zaragoza, June 22 to 26, 2015 )〕
DAMA/NaI and DAMA/LIBRA,〔(First results from DAMA/LIBRA and the combined results with DAMA/NaI ) R.Bernabei et al. European Physical Journal C 56: 333, 2010〕 experimental efforts performed at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory, accumulated more than thirteen annual cycles of data (also with NaI scintillators), obtaining a positive signal.〔(New results from DAMA/LIBRA ).R.Bernabei et al. European Physical Journal C 67: 39, 2010〕 Comparison of that result with negative results from other targets and experimental techniques is strongly model dependent. ANAIS (adopting the same target and technique that DAMA/LIBRA) appeared in the last roadmap of ApPEC〔(ASPERA, Astroparticle Physics, SAC-roadmap, Nov.2011 )〕 (Astroparticle Physics European Coordination) to allow testing with an independent experimental set-up and in a model-independent way.
