Description
This talk will provide an overview of the DarkSide-20k experiment by the Global Argon Dark Matter Collaboration. This experiment aims to explore the WIMP hypothesis by detecting WIMP-nucleon elastic scattering with a dual-phase time projection chamber (TPC) detector filled with low-radioactivity underground liquid argon. We will discuss the current status of the experiment, as well as the involvement of the Cryogenic Laboratory of our department in the testing of photo-detection systems with a dedicated cryogenic testing facility and R&D with Proto-0, a small-scale prototype of DarkSide-20k.
