Authors

Description

The First results of the Tokyo dark matter search programme using a 21-g lithium fluoride bolometer are presented. The background spectrum was measured in the surface laboratory. We derive an exclusion plot for the spin-dependently coupled Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) cross section.
