We have a big problem in understanding the most abundant mass content in the Universe: dark matter. Despite several decades of experimental effort with hundreds of million dollars of investment, there is still no observation of direct interaction of dark matter with sensitive detectors at deep underground labs worldwide. Are we going to hit the unavoidable neutrino background soon? Shall we...

The Skipper Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) is a groundbreaking technology that is opening unprecedented windows to the universe through the detection of single photons and electrons. The first gram-scale instrument using the Skipper-CCD technology was produced in 2016 at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in collaboration with the Lawrence Berkeley MicroSystems Lab. This prototype system...
