  1. Yangyang Underground Laboratory Sun Kee Kim Seoul National University

  2. Questions on Universe • What is the Universe made of? • How large is the Universe? • How did the Universe start? • What is the destiny of the Universe? • What is the meaning of life in the Universe? • … Some of these questions can be answered by understanding the nature of Dark matter and Neutrinos “The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible” - A. Einstein-

  3. Issues • Dark Matter • What is it ? WIMP?, Axion,… • What is its nature? Mass, SUSY,… • Neutrinos • What is mass? • Majorana or Dirac? • Magentic moment? • Mixing angle? • Underground experiments on • Direct dark matter search • Neutrinoless double beta decay search • Neutrino magnetic moment with strong source “The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible” - A. Einstein-

  4. On going at KIMS • Dark Matter • CsI(Tl) crystal detector • ULE HPGe detector for low mass • Cryogenic detector development • Neutrinoless double beta decay • Metal(Sn,Zn,…)loaded liquid scintillator • CaMoO4 crystal detector • Other crystals(PbMoO4,CdWO4,...) PLB 633, 201, 2006

  5. DMRC • Dark Matter Research Center at SNU was established in 2000. - funded by Creative Research Initiative program of MOST(funded up to 2009) • KIMS group for CsI(Tl) WIMP search - SNU, Kyungpook National Univ., Sejong Univ. Younsei University, Ewha Woman’s Univ., KRISS • International Collaboration - China: Tsinghua Univ., IHEP - Taiwan: Academia Sinica (ULE HPGe) - Japan: KEK, Saga Univ. - Russia: ITEP (DBD) - Ukrine: INR (DBD)

  6. History • 2000.12.16 Mini-workshop on WIMP search with crystals, Seoul (Henry Wong, Jin Li) • 2001.3.21 Beijing Mini-workshop, Beijing • 2001.9.13 Cold Dark Matter Mini-workshop, Taipei • 2003.9.23 TEXONO-KIMS joint meeting, Beijing • 2003.9.28 Vasily Kornoukhov visited KIMS • 2004.1.29 TEXONO-KIMS Joint workshop, Yongpyung • 2004.4.21 KIMS visited Moscow • 2004.7.5 ITEP group visited KIMS • 2004.10.27 Chinese Funding agency visited KIMS • 2005.10.9 Fedor Danevich visited KIMS • 2005.12.18 Takayuki Matsui visited KIMS • 2006.2.6 Workshop on the underground experiments at Yangyang • Good news in 2005 • Tsinghua Univ. group got funding support • ITEP group got ISTC project funded
