An experimental particle physicist who coauthored DAMA/LIBRA studies of annual modulation in dark-matter direct detection. The apparatus measures low-energy events in thallium-doped sodium iodide crystals over successive annual cycles. The collaboration compared the amplitude, period and phase of single-detector events with a dark matter modulation hypothesis; the measured modulation and its physical interpretation are separate questions.[ref]
New results from DAMA/LIBRA by R. Bernabei and others. Abstract: annual cycles and single-hit modulation in the sodium-iodide target
