DarkQuantum Quantum Technologies for Axion Dark Matter Search
Coordinator: UNIVERSIDAD DE ZARAGOZA (ES)
The unresolved nature of the Dark Matter permeating our Universe is one of the most pressing questions of modern science. It is connected to our very understanding of reality at the most fundamental level. The axion DM paradigm has recently emerged as one of the most compelling hypothesis to solve this question: Dark Matter would be composed by very light and very feebly interacting axions. Thisparadigm is strongly motivated by theory, and predicts a clear signal in terrestrial experiments called axion haloscopes.Pioneering experiments have reached enough sensitivity to test some realistic ax…
About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)
Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.
EU contribution: €13.0M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 6 years from 2024-10-01 to 2030-09-30.
