Description
The DMTPC directional dark matter detection experiment is a low-pressure CF4 gas
time projection chamber, instrumented with charge and scintillation photon
readout. This detector design strategy emphasizes reconstruction of
WIMP-induced nuclear recoil tracks in order to determine the direction
of incident dark matter particles. This talk will review the experimental
technique, and recent surface and underground results from the 10L DMTPC
detector.
