%0 Journal Article %T Dark Matter Search with liquid Noble Gases %A Marc Schumann %J Physics %D 2012 %I arXiv %X Dark matter detectors using the liquid noble gases xenon and argon as WIMP targets have evolved rapidly in the last decade and will continue to play a major role in the field. Due to the possibility to scale these detectors to larger masses relatively easily, noble liquids will likely be the first technology realizing a detector with a ton-scale target mass. In this article, we summarize the basic concepts of liquid noble gas dark matter detectors and review the current experimental status. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1206.2169v1
