Abstract
Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are an attractive candidate for
the dark matter thought to make up the bulk of the mass of our universe. We
explore here the possibility of using a low pressure negative ion drift chamber
to search for WIMPs. The innovation of drifting ions, instead of electrons,
allows the design of a detector with exceptional sensitivity to, background
rejection from, and signature of WIMPs.
