Description
Assuming for WIMPs a Maxwellian velocity distribution in the Galaxy we explore in a systematic way the relative sensitivity of present and projected Dark Matter direct detection experiments to each of the 14 couplings that parameterize the most general non-relativistic effective Hamiltonian allowed by Galilean invariance for the elastic scattering off nuclei of WIMPs up to spin 1/2. We perform our analysis in terms of two free parameters: the WIMP mass and the ratio between the WIMP-neutron and the WIMP-proton couplings.
