We work on *experimental* astrophysics and particle physics to explore two fundamental mysteries: Dark Matter, a mysterious substance filling the universe, and neutrinos, elusive particles revealing secrets about stars and beyond Standard Model physics.
The XENONnT Experiment
Our team is at the forefront of unraveling the mysteries of dark matter through the XENONnT experiment. This cutting-edge project utilizes a state-of-the-art liquid xenon detector to search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), which is one of the leading candidates for dark matter. Our specific focus is on the critical aspect of calibration, enhancing the detector's sensitivity to ...
The RELICS Experiment
The RELICS experiment represents a pioneering effort in the detection of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) near a nuclear reactor. Employing a liquid xenon time projection chamber, our research delves into the subtle interactions of neutrinos, offering potential breakthroughs in our understanding of fundamental physics and the ability to probe new physics beyond the standard ...
The Windchime Project
Windchime stands as a novel venture into the domain of quantum sensing, seeking to detect the feeble gravitational impulses from dark matter close to Planck-mass. Our innovative approach leverages quantum-enhanced accelerometer array to maximize the possibility to catch the rare dark matter track across. This project aims to expand the horizons of dark matter research, with the novel developmen...
