We present the case for a dark matter detector with directional sensitivity. This document was developed at the 2009 CYGNUS workshop on directional dark matter detection, and contains contributions from theorists and experimental groups in the field. We describe the need for a dark matter detector with directional sensitivity; each directional dark matter experiment presents their project's status; and we close with a feasibility study for scaling up to a one ton directional detector, which would cost around $150M.

We have measured the solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) 1H spin-lattice relaxation rate from 93 to 340 K at NMR frequencies of 8.5 and 53 MHz in 5-t-butyl-4-hydroxy-2-methylphenyl sulfide. We have also determined the molecular and crystal structures from X-ray diffraction experiments. The relaxation is caused by methyl and t-butyl group rotation modulating the spin–spin interactions and we relate the NMR dynamical parameters to the structure. A successful fit of the data requires that the 2-methyl groups are rotating fast (on the NMR time scale) even at the lowest temperatures employed. The rotational barrier for …
A Review Of Polytypism In Lead Iodide, Peter A. Beckmann
A Review Of Polytypism In Lead Iodide, Peter A. Beckmann
Physics Faculty Research and Scholarship
Lead Iodide (PbI2) is an important inorganic solid for both basic scientific research and possible technological applications and in this brief review we discuss the structure of PbI2. Although the basic structure is a simple I-Pb-I layered structure with a [PbI6]4- near-octahedron being the basic building block, there are many ways of stacking the layers which results in many polytypes. We present 20 of the 23 entries for the structure of PbI2 from the Inorganic Structural Database and order them by polytype. This represents more than 80 years of crystallographic research in the structure of this compound. We present a …
