Results of XENON Experiment Challenge Longstanding Claim of Dark Matter Interactions

Results of the XENON100 experiment are a bright spot in the search for dark matter. A team of international scientists involved in the project – which includes Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) researcher Ethan Brown – have demonstrated the sensitivity of their detector and recorded results that challenge several dark matter models and a longstanding claim of dark matter detection. The results are published in two papers in the journals Science and Physical Review Letters.
