Abstract
- Data taken by CRESST with a cryogenic detector system based on 262 g sapphire crystals has been used to place limits on WIMP dark matter in the Galactic Halo. The experiment was especially sensitive for low-mass WIMPs with spin-dependent cross sections and improves on existing limits in this region. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
