This is the Sanford Underground Research Facility, the deepest underground laboratory in the United States. This facility houses 10 different labs, conducting experiments that can only be done well beneath the Earth's surface. WIRED takes a tour of three labs studying dark matter, neutrinos, and geothermal energy.

Veritasium has a great video on a similar dark matter detector in Australia that's involved in these experiments.

Yeah LBNF/DUNE is the biggest of its kind: linear proton accelerator, neutrino research collaboration and propably the biggest neutrino detectors of its energy range. Little hype in the video. The biggest research collaboration in particle physics and the biggest particle accelerator is LHC in Cern. I think also the biggest neutrino detector by size is the 1 cubic kilometer IceCube in Antarctica. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@rocketRobScott Жыл бұрын

I have an out-of-the-box idea about dark astrophysics. Maybe a scientist could consider it, scientifically. It’s this: what if completely empty space behaves differently than space containing particulate matter? What if it acts like a bubble, and all clumps together making a bigger and bigger bubble … of inverse gravity.

it's great and all that you drop the names of all the tools and machines that they're using and then completely skip any explanation what cryptic TLA machine number 3 does. do you expect me to go into a google rabbit hole for every machine shown on screen? if you have time to label it, please also take time to explain in a few words what it does. or just skip over it entirely because for me it doesn't add to the understanding of what the scientists do when i see a list of nondescript machinery.
