Abstract:The highly radiopure 250 kg NaI(Tl) DAMA/LIBRA set-up is running at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory of the I.N.F.N.. The first results obtained by exploiting over four annual cycles the model independent annual modulation signature for Dark Matter (DM) particles confirm those of the former DAMA/NaI. In particular, the DAMA/NaI and DAMA/LIBRA data satisfy all the many peculiarities of the DM annual modulation signature. Neither systematic effects nor side reactions able to account for the observed modulation… Show more
