Physicists and biologists plan to build a dark matter detector out of DNA that is 1000 times more sensative
Arxiv – New Dark Matter Detectors using DNA for Nanometer Tracking (13 pages) Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) may constitute most of the matter in the Universe. While there are intriguing results from DAMA/LIBRA, CoGeNT and CRESST-II, there is not yet a compelling detection of dark matter. The ability to detect the directionality of recoil …
