Brown Astrophysics Journal Club. Prof Savvas Koushiappas' Group. Prof Ian Dell'Antonio's Group. Prof Gregory Tucker's Group. What is Dark Matter? So what’s it made of? How much of this stuff are we talking about? What is the fate of the universe? Because of dark energy’s increasing influence over time, our universe is predicted to expand into eternity. Eventually the stars will die out and all that will be left are black holes and clumps of matter. Boring, yes, but a fitting end nonetheless.

The LUX 2013 results paper is one of only two publications to garner more than 500 citations in other reviewed high-energy papers in 2014, on the popular community database INSPIRE. Start of new LUX dark matter campaign and re-analysis of 2013 data. This story appeared in the SURF newsletter for December 2014).

Rick Gaitskell is Co-spokesperson for the LUX experiment. He has been pursuing the direct detection of dark matter detection for over 20 years. He was a PI on the XENON10 experiment at LNGS, Italy, CDMS II at Soudan Mine, MN, and also worked on the CDMS I experiment at Stanford. Dongqing joined Brown PA group in July of 2012 after graduating from Pitt...
