Searching for Dark Matter underground in a gold mine
Alan Duffy
After years of work from teams worldwide, we are finally nearing the completion of the deepest underground physics laboratory in the Southern Hemisphere all searching for dark matter!
So it was a double thrill that I could take one of Australia's biggest shows - Network 10's #TheProjectTV - on a tour of this Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory and our search for dark matter with the SABRE detector... showing off this global effort led by University of Melbourne's Prof Elisabetta Barberio with colleagues from Swinburne University of Technology, University of Adelaide, The Australian National University, ANSTO, INFN, Northern Grampians Shire Council and immense support from the Australian Research Council
