SuperCDM Experiment Reaches Critical Temperature, Bringing it One Step Closer to Detecting Dark Matter

University of Minnesota researchers are working on the design of the low-background shield, which creates a zone free of trace radioactivity that could overwhelm the faint dark matter signal. Credit: Greg Stewart/SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory

The Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (SuperCDMS) experiment has reached its coldest operating temperature, hundreds of times colder than outer space.
