Description

We describe the research and development efforts of the UCLA-Torino group to develop a large, powerful, discriminating WIMP detector. We also discuss the possible amplifications of the WIMP signal. The first real detector, ZEPLIN II, is being prepared for the UKDMC Boulby Mine Laboratory
