New results from the KIMS experiment

Abstract

The Korea Invisible Mass Search (KIMS) collaboration has performed experiments on dark matter searches and double beta decay searches at the Yangyang underground laboratory. Recent results of KIMS as well as the status of the R&D on various detectors are presented. For the WIMP search KIMS ruled out the recoil of 127I of DAMA signal region unambiguously and set the most stringent limit on spin dependent WIMP interactions in the case of pure proton coupling. New limits on neutrino-less double beta decays of 112Sn, 124Sn, 64Zn is also reported.
