  1. Yeongduk Kim Center for Underground Physics, IBS Sejong University Dark MAttersand Neutrino Projects at the Center for Underground Physics. AKPA 2014. 5. 9.

  2. Center for Underground Physics (CUP) • CUP began on July 2013 as a headquarter center. • Now, 17Ph.Ds, 15 students, 3 technicians, 2 administrations. • Research Area : Dark Matter, Double Beta Decay, Sterile neutrino search, Low temperature Detector Development.

  3. Evidences for Dark Matter Existence

  4. More quantitative evidence : cosmic microwave background

  5. Many particle candidates are proposed with many orders of magnitudeof mass. Who will be the hero ? Or None of them. Particle candidates K.Y. Choi, JKPS 63, 1685(2013)

  6. Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) WIMP is a massive new particle havinga right <sv> value for the current dark matter density. So it is a good candidate for dark matter particles. increasing

  7. WIMP DETECTION WIMP c c q q WIMP scattering (Direct Search) Annihilation (Indirect Search) Production (Accelerator Search)

  8. Detection Principle of Direct Search WIMP Detector Nucleus WIMP-Nucleus elastic scattering Event rate : Experiment Measure this SUSY models Limit of R Limit of s

  9. What is the direct signal for WIMPs ? • Recoil energy spectrum as expected at low energy. • Annual modulation. • Directional asymmetry. • A2 dependence (Spin-independent) Yearly revolution  annual modulation Daily rotation  direction change Earth velocity (30km/s)

  10. DAMA/LIBRA experiment 250 kg NaI(Tl) crystals coupled with PMTs. Observed clear annual modulation for 13 years. PMT +HV divider

  11. Status of WIMP searches

  12. YangYang(Y2L) Underground Laboratory (Upper Dam) YangYangPumped Storage Power Plant Y2L Seoul 1000m RENO 700m (Power Plant) (Lower Dam) KIMS (Dark Matter Search) AMoRE (Double Beta Decay Experiment) Minimum depth : 700 m / Access to the lab by car (~2km)

  13. KIMS-NaI Experiment@CUP • To verify the DAMA result using same NaI(Tl) crystals. • Our strategy : Achieve lower background level and lower energy • threshold than DAMA by factor 2. • We can clarify the origin of the annual modulation unambiguously. NaI(Tl) Crystal CsI Detector

  14. Background rates – We are getting there. • Low threshold down to 1 keVis possible. • Background reduction expected by further purification.

  15. Search for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decays EttoreMajorana (1906 – 1938 ?)

  16. Neutrinomixing&oscillation If neutrinos are massive and mixed, then they oscillate. 0 0
