While the CDMS II experiment is quite sensitive to a heavy $Fe'$ component, and may yet find a positive result, a more decisive test of mirror matter-type dark matter would require a lower threshold experiment using light target elements.about 6 pagesAstrophysicsHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyReconciling the positive DAMA annual modulation signal with the negative results of the CDMS II experimenttext
