摘要：Different astronomical observations and measurements indicate that more than 80% of all matter in the Universe is “dark”. The dominant component of this cosmological Dark Matter (DM) must be due to some yet to be discovered, non–baryonic particles. Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) arising in several extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics are one of the leading DM candidates. Currently, the most promising method to detect different WIMP candidates is the direct detection of the recoil energy deposited by elastic scattering of ambient WIMPs off the target nuclei in a low–background underground laboratory detector. For understanding the nature of WIMPs, determinations of their mass and couplings on nucleons from direct Dark Matter detection experiments are essential. In this talk I will briefly review the direct DM detection from the theoretical point of view. Then I will present our model– independent data analysis methods for extracting WIMP properties by using experimental data directly.
