XENON - CoimbraThe XENON phased program. The XENON Dark Matter Direct Search Experiment aims to directly detect the fraction of dark matter in the Universe. The particles sustaining the existence of dark matter are known as WIMPs (Weakly Interactive Massive Particles). The existing models predict interaction rates with regular matter that can be as low as 1 event/ton Xe/year. This way large detection volumes are needed and extreme care is needed with the background radiation levels. It is in the final commissioning pha...
