4 The DEAP/CLEAN experiments DEAP-1: 7 kg LAr prototype experiment Run at Queen’s for demonstration of PSD Installed underground at SNOLAB 2007 for continued PSD and background studies, DM search MicroCLEAN 2 kg prototype experiment at Yale University MiniCLEAN: 360 kg experiment targeting DM with LAr and prototyping neon for particle astrophysics Primary emphasis of US collaborators in short term DEAP/CLEAN-3600: 3600 kg experiment targeting DM with LAr Primary emphasis of Canadian collaborators in short term

5 Argon is a good WIMP detection target Excellent PSD between electron recoils and nuclear recoils Good scintillator (40 photons/keV) Inexpensive and easy to purify Single-phase detector, easy to scale up with “standard” assumptions about the WIMP distribution and for a 100 GeV WIMP Rate ~ A 2 F (coherent) Loss of coherence for large nuclei

6 χ 40 Ar χ Direct WIMP detection with liquid argon Energy transfer in liquid argon leads to formation of excited dimers Dimer molecules are in either singlet or triplet states, and the lifetimes are well-separated: – ~ 6 ns for singlet state (prompt) – ~ 1.59 µs for triplet state (delayed)

7 Fraction of dimers in singlet or triplet states depends on the incident particle type Pulse-shape discrimination A. Hitachi et al., Phys. Rev. B 27 (9) (1983) 5279
