We perform state-of-the-art large-scale shell-model calculations of thestructure factors for elastic spin-dependent WIMP scattering off 129,131Xe,127I, 73Ge, 19F, 23Na, 27Al, and 29Si. This comprehensive survey covers thenon-zero-spin nuclei relevant to direct dark matter detection. We include apedagogical presentation of the formalism necessary to describe elastic andinelastic WIMP-nucleus scattering. The valence spaces and nuclear interactionsemployed have been previously used in nuclear structure calculations for thesemass regions and yield a good spectroscopic description of these isotopes. Weuse spin-dependent WIMP-nucleus currents based on chiral effective field theory(EFT) at the one-body level and including the leading long-range two-bodycurrents due to pion exchange, which are predicted in chiral EFT. Results forall structure factors are provided with theoretical error bands due to thenuclear uncertainties of WIMP currents in nuclei.
