This workshop brought together the various international communities, both experimental and theoretical, working on new technologies and models for light (sub- GeV) DM, in order to explore the feasibility of these new ideas. At the same time, we aimed to connect this work to advances in next-generation imaging technology and quantum measurement, which have synergies with the field of DM research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We brought together experimental experts in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Photon Counting Detectors for Rare Event Searches<\/li><li>Quantum Sensing<\/li><li>Cryogenic Calorimetry<\/li><li>Solid State Crystal Defects and Color Centers<\/li><li>Superconducting and Dirac Materials<\/li><li>Particle Detection with Ultra-Light Elements<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Each of these techniques has something unique to offer in the search for light DM particles and this workshop probed how a mixture of these techniques could span the entire mass range of interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/astro.fnal.gov\/ldm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DarkMatterWshop-Poster.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"791\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/astro.fnal.gov\/ldm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DarkMatterWshop-Poster-791x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1064\" srcset=\"https:\/\/astro.fnal.gov\/ldm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DarkMatterWshop-Poster-791x1024.jpg 791w, https:\/\/astro.fnal.gov\/ldm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DarkMatterWshop-Poster-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/astro.fnal.gov\/ldm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DarkMatterWshop-Poster-768x994.jpg 768w, https:\/\/astro.fnal.gov\/ldm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DarkMatterWshop-Poster.jpg 1275w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:59px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Directions in the Search for Light Dark Matter Particles June 4-7, 2019 Over the last few years, a growing community of scientists has begun to explore the prospect of dark matter lighter than the proton (sub- GeV), which cannot currently be detected with conventional laboratory-based searches.
