Description
The Directional Recoil Identification From Tracks (DRIFT) detector is a 1 m^3 scale negative ion TPC operating in the Boulby Mine in England. We present current limits
from DRIFT and provide a brief update on background reduction efforts. A new DRIFT-II detector being constructed will demonstrate these background reduction ideas and show engineering feasibility towards scale up of a new DRIFT-III detector. Plans for this scaled up detector will also be presented.
