Scientists Prepare to Expand Dark Matter Search with New Weapon

Scientists are deploying a new highly sensitive underground detector in the French Alps to expand the search for dark matter particles, especially lighter ones like electrons, which previous methods may have missed. This detector uses advanced silicon CCD technology to detect tiny energy signals from potential dark matter interactions, aiming to uncover or rule out certain dark matter candidates and deepen our understanding of this mysterious universe component.
