The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment analyzed the largest dataset ever collected by a dark matter detector. The record-breaking results provide the strongest constraints yet on low-mass WIMPs, proposed dark matter particles.
The Institute for Underground Science at SURF is launching the John Bahcall Colloquium, a monthly series of scientific lectures to build intellectual community while delving into the wide range of disciplines being researched at SURF.
Quantum sensors and quantum computers may benefit from a reduction in cosmic-ray muons offered in places like the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, SD.
SURF’s Emergency Response Team (ERT) are the first responders for all incidents that might occur above or below ground at the facility. The team now includes a majority of individuals who are trained as Emergency Medical Technicians (EMT).
Each year, a small but mighty team of educators at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) fan out across the state and region to bring hands-on STEM based activities to thousands of students in K-12 classrooms.
Two student engineering teams at SDSU spent their senior year on capstone design projects at SURF. One team built a new mine rail cart for hauling liquid nitrogen underground. The other built a drone for inspecting hard to reach vertical shafts.
The Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) recently donated a high-end projector to the Homestake Opera House, as part of an ongoing effort to restore the treasured theater for the community.
