Abstract
► DRIFT is only one of a handful of directional dark matter detectors. ► A method of rejecting Radon Progeny Recoils, DRIFT's main background, is discussed. ► Additionally DRIFT-IId was found to run stably with a mixture of CS2 and CF4. ► DRIFT's sensitivity is orders of magnitude better than other directional detectors.
