This grant is for the purpose of advancing the field of dark matter research through the development and construction of future generation direct-detection experiments. It specifically invites proposals for comprehensive R&D initiatives aimed at enhancing our understanding of dark matter particles. Researchers are encouraged to explore a wide array of potential dark matter candidates, as submissions are not restricted to conventional WIMPs or axions. The program seeks to foster innovative investigations into any viable dark matter species, supporting projects that push the boundaries of current detection capabilities. The ultimate goal is to accelerate the discovery of dark matter, unraveling one of the universe’s most profound mysteries.
