Scientific paper

One of the most intriguing puzzles in physics in recent times is that of dark matter. The DRIFT experiment is the first directionally sensitive dark matter search. The design is based on a gaseous time projection chamber and employs carbon disulphide gas at low pressure. DRIFT-I was installed in the underground laboratory at Boulby mine in 2001 and has acquired more than 1500 hours of data. The first module of the second generation detector, DRIFT-II, was installed in the new underground experimental hall at Boulby mine in February 2005 and has begun performing initial calibration and data runs. Further modules are due to be positioned underground throughout 2005.
