SNOLAB is Canada’s deep underground research laboratory, located in Vale’s Creighton mine near Sudbury, Ontario Canada. This research facility provides an ideal low background environment for the study of extremely rare physical interactions. At 2km, SNOLAB is the deepest cleanest lab in the world. It is an expansion of the facilities constructed for the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) solar neutrino experiment and has 5,000 m2 of clean space underground for experiments and supporting infrastructure.
This is where SuperCDMS is housed, which makes it suitable to host the review here. Please the Visitor Guide on the Overview Page for Information on how to get to SNOLAB and how to prepare yourself for an underground tour.
