摘要
The DMTPC detector is a low-pressure CF(4) TPC with optical readout for directional detection of Dark Matter. The combination of the energy and directional tracking information allows for an efficient suppression of all backgrounds. The choice of gas (CF(4)) makes this detector particularly sensitive to spin-dependent interactions.
