Description

Direct detection of dark matter is a promising approach to discovering the nature of dark matter particles. I describe the future of this field of research, focusing on new technologies proposed for reaching the irreducible neutrino background for low-mass dark matter, with particle mass less than 10 GeV/c^2. I also describe new technologies for axion dark matter detection, again focusing on new technologies that promise to expand the mass range available to experimental inquiry.
