Abstract: (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron)

The orbital motion of the Earth can result in annual modulation signatures of dark matter. The DAMA group reported a positive signal for an annual modulation with NaI(Tl) crystal detectors. The KIMS experiment uses a CsI(Tl) crystal detector array to search for dark matter and, if the DAMA result is in fact due to WIMP interactions, can be expected to see a similar annual modulation signal. This paper presents results of a search for a dark-matter-induced annual modulation of signals in CsI(Tl) detectors over a 2.5 year period.
