SuperCDMS
SuperCDMS (Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search) is a scientific experiment designed to detect elusive particles called dark matter, which makes up most of the universe's mass. It uses highly sensitive detectors cooled to extremely low temperatures to observe tiny energy shifts when dark matter particles interact with regular matter. Located deep underground to minimize interference from cosmic rays and background radiation, SuperCDMS aims to identify these rare interactions, helping scientists understand the nature of dark matter and its role in the universe’s structure.
