DARK MATTER DETECTION
University of Delaware’s Swati Singh is among a small group of researchers across the dark matter community that have begun to wonder if they are looking for the right type of dark matter. Singh, Jack Manley, a UD doctoral student, and collaborators at the University of Arizona and Haverford College, have proposed a new way to look for the particles that might make up dark matter by repurposing existing tabletop sensor technology.
Aaron S. Chou: Then and Now / 2011 Early Career Award Winner
Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory’s Aaron Chou developed the Holometer experiment to measure noise (unwanted data on a transmitted signal) more precisely. He now develops equipment for ultrasensitive dark matter detection and quantum information science devices.
