NEON experiment shares results from first direct search for light dark matter

Summary

Nutrition label

90% Informative

Light dark matter is predicted to account for most of the universe's mass.

Theories suggest that these particles could weakly interact with ordinary matter, yet the weakness of these interactions could make them difficult to detect.

The NEON ( Neutrino Elastic Scattering Observation with Nal) collaboration has published the results of their first direct search for LDM .

Their paper, published in Physical Review Letters , sets new constraints on the properties of this key dark matter candidate.
