Correction to: Nature https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-018-0739-1, published online 5 December 2018.
We wish to clarify that our results in this Letter do not have as broad a reach as originally indicated. Our data show that the annual modulation in the signal observed by DAMA is inconsistent with spin-independent interactions between weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) and sodium or iodine in the context of the standard halo model. Owing to an error during the production process, ‘spin-independent’ was omitted from a sentence in the Abstract, which should read: “Assuming the so-called standard dark-matter halo model, this result rules out spin-independent WIMP–nucleon interactions as the cause of the annual modulation observed by the DAMA collaboration”.
